Virginia Institute of Government Update March 2021

By Charles Hartgrove

The VIG team has been busy working directly with local governments beyond our usual technical assistance and training programs. We recently completed an engagement with the Richmond City Council to facilitate their two-day virtual council retreat. This included identifying and prioritizing Council internal and external strategies. We look forward to similar work with the Patrick County Board of Supervisors later this month. Please contact me if you are interested in learning more about our professional services available to localities.

The following is our virtual training course calendar for March and April:

  • Cybersecurity for Local Government, Part 1 - March 18, time TBA, 1.5 hours

  • Cybersecurity for Local Government, Part 2 - March 25, time TBA, 1.5 hours

  • Collaborative Leadership, April 8, time TBA, 4 hours*

  • Conflict Resolution, April 15, time TBA, 4 hours*

Please contact our training and research coordinator, Mike Scheid (804-371-0202 or ms6df@virginia.edu), for information about the courses and registration. *These courses have been developed in partnership with UVA's Institute for Engagement and Negotiation: https://www.arch.virginia.edu/ien
