A Knowledge management portal has been launched in Ukraine since 2020. It was created by the National Agency of Ukraine for Civil Service (NAUCS) to develop the market of professional training services provided to public servants on the principles of transparency with the appropriate system of monitoring and quality evaluation.

It was direct implementation of the provisions of the Concept on Reforming Professional Training System for Civil Servants, Local State Administration Heads, Their First Deputies and Deputies, Local Self-Government Officials, Local Councillors, developed with the Council of Europe support as well as recommendations of the Council of Europe Peer Review Report on reforming the training system for local authorities in Ukraine.

We would like to bring to your attention to the training programs on Human Resources Management for local self-government authorities developed by the Council of Europe Programme “Decentralisation and local government reform in Ukraine” based on the best practices and the Council of Europe tools and hosted by the Knowledge Management Portal:

• Special short term training programme “Public service in local selfgovernment authorities”;
• Special professional (certificate) training programme “Modern instruments of human resources management in local selfgovernment authorities”.

The mentioned training programs will be delivered in the first half of 2020 on the basis of the Khmelnytsky and Volyn Regional Training Centres and Dnipro regional branch of the Association of Ukrainian Cities with the Council of Europe expert support.
