Events: online and in-person

As part of its training offer, DAPTC holds online and in-person events in the form of webinars and conferences.

Webinars, under the banner of Working Togther Webinars (WTW) tend to be free events with no limit on who can attend. DAPTC holds WTW with Dorset Council and other relevant parties to brief parish and town councils about key changes, projects and initiatives that will affect lives in Dorset. They may simply provide information or include an ask for action - it all depends on the topic. The WTW with Dorset Council often provide an opportunity to engage with Dorset Council officers, elected members and other specialist experts.

Conferences are in-person events which tend to be orientated around councillors or clerks and employees although at times, depending on the subject matter, they may be for everyone. These events attract a fee - just like training courses - to cover costs and refreshments as conferences run from morning through to mid-afternoon.

What if I can't attend an event?
DAPTC will publish any resources from events as soon as possible, in an article similar to those below. Webinars are recorded when possible and uploaded like resources for those that can't make it on the day.
