SUMMARY:Hiring the Right Asset Coordinator for your Organization
DESCRIPTION:Session Date:\nApril 25\, 2019 | 1-2 pm EST\n \nAsset Managers or Coordinators are suddenly in demand across North America’s local governments and other public sector organizations. Due to new regulatory or funding requirements\, as well as the growing awareness surrounding infrastructure deficits\, municipalities and utilities are increasingly opting to introduce a new dedicated position responsible for the coordination of asset management activities\, strategy and performance. Hiring for a technical and multi-disciplinary role\, like an Asset Manager\, and ensuring that the chosen candidate is the right fit can be a significant challenge for an organization. \n \nIn this webinar\, attendees will gain insight on how best to hire asset management expertise to compliment their organization’s unique needs. This webinar will cover the following: \n\n\n\n\nHow to determine the right skills and qualifications to include in a brand new posting (for many municipalities this will be the first time hiring an Asset Manager or Coordinator)\nWhere to post a technical job posting for maximum results  \nHow to interview and assess candidates to ensure the right person is hired for the job – asset management is a cross-disciplinary field involving finance\, public works and often the CAO\, so how do you make sure the candidate meets the needs of various stakeholders?\nHow to onboard a new hire successfully in a role that didn’t previously exist \n\n\n\n\nAdditionally\, attendees will learn about the Asset Management Competency Framework that CNAM\, in collaboration with a collection of national partners\, are developing.

SUMMARY:Free Webinar - Managing Complaints\, Service Requests and Job Tracking
DESCRIPTION:Digital Government for Smaller Municipalities \nIn this webinar we will look at digital government through the lens of complaints\, service requests and  job management processes by reviewing potential tools. We will define digital government by framing it around the real experiences of smaller municipalities \nDigital Government does not need to start with citizen apps and a new website\, the recommendation is to start from the inside: create a better process\, provide tools with automation built-in to lessen the workload\, ensure everyone is empowered to be a citizen service leader. \nWhen you leave this webinar\, you will have: \n\nA better understanding of what digital government can look like for your municipality\nA list of free and low-cost tools/systems that can help you as you work towards the implementation of digital government in your community\nA strong understanding of the benefits of a better complaints and service request process\n\nAs part of the presentation everyone will receive a template for creating a citizen complaints policy document. The template takes about 15 minutes to fill and creates a professional\, multi-page policy document to use as a reference for all staff which will also satisfy the requirements of the ombudsman’s offices at the provincial and federal levels. \nBrad Pinch AccessE11 – Director of Municipal Needs \nOrganizer of Solutions: Digital Government for Smaller Municipalities \nRegister here \nVisit our Website

SUMMARY:The Changing Landscape of Municipal Investment Powers
DESCRIPTION:COMPLIMENTARY WEBINAR \nThe Province of Ontario recently made significant changes to municipal legislation and regulations with respect to investment powers for Ontario municipalities.  Section 418.1\, which has recently come into effect\, provides authority for municipalities to invest funds not required immediately using the prudent investor standard (PI) rather than the more restrictive “legal list” approach of the past.  A new section to the eligible investment regulation (Part II) provides details in the PI standard\, who can access it\, what you need to do to have it apply and what governance structures must be in place.  At the same time that these changes were made\, regulatory amendments were also made to the regulation (Part I) with respect to pre-existing investment powers. \nJoin us as we discuss the changes to investment powers that will affect you.  \nDate: Wednesday\, March 21 @ 12:00 pm – 1:30 pm  \nClick here to Register

SUMMARY:Labour Relation Trends and Grievances
DESCRIPTION:June 27\, 2017 – 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. EDT \nWhile the norm for collective agreements has been around fiscal restraint especially in the public sector\, the increasing impact on technology have made for intense negotiations for manufacturing sectors. \nWe will cover recent trends in negotiations as well as new technology that is available for managing grievances. Companies need visibility into past and present grievances so that they can apply consistent corrective measures. Technology will reduce time and improve compliance and accountability that helps organizations manage cost effectively the grievance process and outcomes. \nLabor management is a critical aspect for any organization. Many companies have unions to ensure that Labor policies are fair and consistent for all employees. In unionized work environments\, an employee can raise grievances in case any policies have been violated. An organization can have hundreds of grievances in a year. All grievances require investigations and arbitrations meetings which are recorded on paper and cause a traceability headache. Technology is available now enabling employees to create grievance and complaints. Managers & unions can follow through grievance steps and record the outcomes of complaints. Supervisors can create disciplinary actions\, maintain employee records. \nSee More & Register Now!
