The Australasian Management Challenge is a professional development opportunity for all up and coming staff within council. Specially designed to provide councils in all areas of NSW the opportunity to take part in this truly unique professional development experience, the Challenge develops skills and knowledge that can be immediately applied back to council.

How the Challenge works

Over one day, teams of six come together to compete against other councils in NSW as they are challenged with tasks that stretch their knowledge of local government and their council’s policies and procedures. All tasks are tailored specifically for councils, addressing realistic scenarios faced in the day-to-day management of council operations.
