12.3.9 Action Plan: Institutional Management
The constant change in urban sector in the context of reforms results in the need for
continuous upgradation of the skills and knowledge of the ULB staff. TNUDP III has
initiated the process of providing the required training to the staff during the current
planning period. It is essential that the training process becomes a sustainable one
with the introduction of an institutional framework which would ensure that the
training is provided in a continuous manner.
Training programmes need to be evolved depending upon whether they are
Elected Representatives, Senior level officers, Middle level officers and staff in
various sections of the ULBs. Training of public representatives and staff of ULBs will
not only improve their skills but also exposes modern/scientific technological
advancement in engineering, management and inter personal communication.
The categorization of training is based upon the position at various levels focusing
primarily of managerial aspects, technical knowledge, skills and management tasks
and awareness about responsibilities.
