We’re looking for volunteers to participate in research to help us improve the Local Digital Declaration to make it easier to understand and put into action, as well as improving the process of becoming a signatory.

We want to speak to individuals interested in or involved with digital transformation or change projects at any level. We’d like to talk to you even if you do not have experience with the Declaration.

Research sessions will take place between 15 and 24 November, and each session will last for one-hour and be held virtually.

Local Digital is delivering virtual training sessions to equip local government officers with an initial understanding of the Agile approach to digital projects.

A few places have become available on this 2-day course –register your place by selecting either the 22 to 23 or 27 to 28 November.

If you have any issues or questions please contact skills@localdigital.gov.uk

Digital Leaders are asking local government officers to complete a short AI Attitudes Survey, so that they can ensure their content is meeting sector needs. AI (Artificial Intelligence) refers to the development of computer systems capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence.

Join techUK as they put the spotlight on local government tech innovations, reflect on the digital trends of the past year and make their predictions for 2024.

This event is both in-person at 10 St Bride Street, London, EC4A 4AD and online. It is also free to attend and open to techUK members and the public sector.
