FOI, Privacy, and Records and Information Management On-Demand Training
If you’re having difficulty finding useful FOI, privacy, and records management training for those new to the roles or need a refresher, look no further! The LGMA offers three on-demand courses on FOI, Privacy, and Records Management, created specifically for BC local government staff. At your own pace, learn key concepts and legislative requirements through interactive learning activities, and review the best practices. Participants will also get an opportunity to attend a complementary Ask the Experts session on November 4, featuring a panel of respected professionals in the field who are eager to share their advice and insight.
Each course consists of two parts: a) 3-module, self-paced online learning and b) a live, virtual “Ask the Experts” session. You can work your way through the online leaning content at your own pace to learn about key information, case scenarios, best practices, and additional helpful resources. Upon completion of the online learning, you will be invited to attend the “Ask the Experts” session on November 4 where you can connect with your peers and experts in the field, ask questions, and exchange best practices to expand your knowledge. Registration for each course is separate and courses do not have to be taken in a particular order. While you do not have to take all three, we recommend you do, as the three topics are are integral to local government.
- Freedom of Information Fundamentals
- Protection of Privacy Fundamentals
- Records and Information Management Fundamentals
Register for one or more courses online. Registration will remain open until December, 2025, and registrants will have access to the course materials until December 31, 2025. After this date, registration will close until Spring 2026.
