Will you be responsible for administering or assisting in the administration of the upcoming General Local Election in October 2026, by-election, or assent voting (referendum) processes? Are you looking to add elections to your skillset or perhaps need a refresher to get you ready for the 2026 General Local Elections? If so, this program is for you! This self-paced and interactive, fully online course has been developed for staff whose job requirements include administering elections, byelections, and assent voting processes.
The LGMA Elections Advisory Committee, comprised of professionals who have administered local government elections across BC, has developed 12 pre-recorded modules that cover the basics of administering an election. These modules can be viewed on your own time and as many times as you need. Each module will also include an interactive Discussion Forum where you can ask questions and engage with your colleagues across the province. “Ask the Expert” Townhalls will be scheduled where you can pose questions and clarify concepts and election requirements with Elections Advisory Committee members and your peers across the province.
Course Format: This self-paced online course consists of 12 pre-recorded modules, which include weekly Discussion Forums and periodic “Ask the Expert” live Townhall meetings. The recordings will be made available on scheduled dates, and you will receive an automatic notification of their availability.
