Is your Council currently mapping out legislation-driven training requirements for Child Safe Standards and Reportable Conduct Scheme in 2024? It may still be early days for you, or perhaps you may be currently working on an internal solution in consultation with your own SMEs.
Whichever stage of the process you are currently at, we believe this update will still be of immense value.
Since January 2021, Global Vision has been liaising with multiple Councils across the state in NSW, strategically coordinating our efforts to release a Council-specific and fit for purpose training solution to Child Safe Standards in line with guidelines provided by the Office of the Children’s Guardian. The eLearn has been looked over by legal teams and SMEs internal to Councils to ensure that it meets all legislation-driven training obligations for Councils.
Worth noting that in Victoria, Global Vision’s LGPro-sponsored CSS course is so popular that 34 Victorian Councils use this course to deliver mandatory annual training around CSS and reportable conduct scheme.
We’ve rolled out a state-wide LG-specific CSS course exclusively for NSW Councils, and what truly makes this particular eLearn unique is the sheer amount of Local Government subject matter expertise which went into creating it.
Not only have we worked with our internal subject matter experts, but Global Vision has also coordinated joint projects with SMEs at NSW Councils during the development of this project.
