Member Development Skills Portal
SEE, Local Government East Midlands and Jobs go Public (JGP) have joined in partnership to develop this innovative online tool to help councillors identify their skills and development needs.

SEE has used the six core skill areas from the IDeA Political Skills Framework as the basis for our programmes for councillors. The Framework has been developed to help councillors, and those working with them, to review and support individual development needs. Find out more about the 6 core skills and how SEE can help.
Further information relating to the Framework can be found at http://www.idea.gov.uk/idk/aio/6515699.
