TRAINING OVERVIEW
In 2008, New Hampshire Local Government Center (LGC) began partnering with Municipal Resources, Inc. (MRI)—a regional consulting firm dedicated to providing support services to municipalities and schools—to offer the LGC Academy. It’s designed to enhance your job performance so that you can bring greater value to your organization. The LGC Academy provides a unique combination of hybrid courses, pairing live instruction with e-learning components, and online courses you can access 24/7. Hybrid course homework assignments can be completed online at your convenience. Supplemental reading in required textbooks may also apply.

The LGC Academy’s course offerings have been developed with support from LGC affiliate groups and New Hampshire organizations. Some combine in-classroom and online instruction while others are completely online—depending on the subject matter.
