Minutes:
The Strata IT Director presented the report, which had been considered at Scrutiny on 31 May 2018. It proposed the introduction of a roving IT training resource to enable the three authorities to deliver a more professional approach to IT and develop skills.
The costs for each Authority were provided, representing the percentage contribution for each authority to cover the £42,000 annual resource charge. A roving training resource would ensure that no single authority would carry the full cost.
A discussion was held on the funding of the IT training post and the financial impact to each authority. Members emphasised the vital need for this resource to also be made available to Councillors of all three authorities.
RESOLVED that Strata would cover the initial costs of the gap analysis exercise to ascertain the need and scope of the IT Training Service to be delivered. The subsequent findings and outcomes would be reported back to the Strata Scrutiny and Joint Executive Committees.
