This training provides councillors and clerks with an overview of the Code of Conduct and the Civility and Respect Pledge, focusing on expected standards of behaviour, professionalism, and maintaining positive working relationships within local councils. The session explores respect in practice, bullying and harassment, declarations of interest, confidentiality, use of council resources, and the importance of ethical decision-making to promote good governance and public confidence.
