Expressions of Interest

The Local Government Association of the Northern Territory (LGANT) is seeking expressions of interest (EOI) for a Register Training Organisation to establish a suite of training options for its member local government councils.

LGANT is the voice of local government, representing 16 councils across the Territory.

The successful tender will provide a “white label” platform with ongoing management and administration, and promotional assistance.

Types of training could vary depending on the audience, for example, governance and conflict management. Audiences include Mayors and Presidents, other elected members, Local Authority members, CEOs and other council staff. Consultation with member councils may be required to determine the greatest training need.

EOIs need to address the following criteria:

1. Organisational availability, capability and capacity including experience/ qualifications of team members to ensure success of delivery;
2. Proposed courses both accredited and non-accredited that demonstrate the appropriateness for local government in the NT;
3. Demonstrate how courses will be tailored to the various audiences (eg. Aboriginal elected members) and relevant legislation and regulation (eg. the Local Government Act 2019) in the NT;
4. Acknowledgment of other training providers (eg. LGPro, AICD, WALGA HR/IR services) and existing LGANT partnerships (eg. LocalBuy).
5. Proposed Commercial Training Partnership Agreement.

EOIs including a brief coversheet addressing the criteria should be emailed to Sean Holden sean.holden@lgant.asn.au no later than 5pm Wednesday 27 September 2023. For more information, please contact 08 8944 9688.

LGANT will review the EOIs and approach the successful applicant for a detailed proposal
