Course description
These are times of great economic change:
In the circumstances, it is challenging for people involved in local economic development to work out what’s best to be done. Uncertainty casts a heavy cloud over local and regional economies. However, this simply means that local economic development professionals need to be more up to speed with what is going on and how best to respond.
This one-day course on Introduction to Local Economic Development is designed for people new to the role in local authorities, regional and national agencies and other organisations. It will cover key policies and strategies, and institutional arrangements, relevant to the Scottish setting. There will then consider some of the underlying economic issues and key drivers in relation to maximising potential of businesses, people and places
