Local Government Leadership Center

Government Employee Training

The Local Government Leadership Center (LGLC) is a cooperative partnership between Jefferson State Community College and local governments in the Jefferson State service area. The partnership pools resources to provide more accessible and affordable training opportunities for employees of area city and county municipalities.  Local area governments, through their appointed representatives on the Curriculum Advisory Board of the Center, will help provide input and assistance in planning educational opportunities. A range of approaches may include seminars, skill workshops, and classroom instruction. Once a local government joins and becomes a Member of the Center, employees may enroll in other Jefferson State Continuing Education classes at a 10 percent discount. (Employees should check with their Personnel Department for qualifications.)
