About this event
This event is sold out
The delivery of services through CCOs has potential risks, including financial failure and the inability to meet council expectations. The political environment and ever-changing legislation adds to the challenges facing CCOs. This training addresses the importance of understanding how CCOs and local authorities can work together to achieve an integrated strategic direction. The programme will contain a mix of theoretical sessions and case studies drawn from a range of local authorities and CCOs. These will showcase innovative council initiatives around managing and monitoring CCOs. There will also be opportunities to network with colleagues from around the country.
This two day training is organised into three themes that recognise the complexities of CCOs:
- The Fundamentals - when to set up a CCO, who to appoint, changes in legislation and taxation.
- Monitoring and Evaluating CCOs - Statement of Intents, reporting performance, policy on appointing directors of CCOs and how best to evaluate and influence CCOs.
- Alternatives – joint ventures and joint committees.
The programme is suitable for:
- Local government staff involved in managing CCOs, particularly but not confined to finance and administration managers, advisors and officers
- Elected members
- Directors of CCOs.
