A leadership development initiative
The Local Government Leadership Academy is a leadership development initiative that serves local government and First Nations elected officials and senior administrators throughout British Columbia by improving the competencies needed to effectively manage and lead BC’s communities.
LGLA introduced its new Level III Leadership Award at the most recent UBCM Convention. Level III carries an added distinction, and the recipients were honoured with a beautiful crystal award. For more information on the Leadership Certification Program, please visit our Programs page.
