LGC Distance EducationWisLinesA WisLine is a live teleconference broadcast from the Pyle Center in Madison to county Extension offices throughout the state. If you have never attended a Local Government Center WisLine program, first visit our All About WisLines page. WisLines for 2012-2013Each year several WisLine series begin in the fall and continue through the following spring. As series brochures become available, they will be posted here (in PDF form). You can download the brochure or obtain it from your local county University of Wisconsin-Extension office; a registration form is included with the brochure. Registration questions may be addressed to lgc@uwex.edu, or you may call (608) 262-9961.

These options are outlined at All About WisLines. Looking for Board of Review?"Conducting the Annual Board of Review" is always in the "Current Issues Affecting Local Government Officials" series. Each year's new version of Board of Review training comes out approximately in April. If you need to train before that, please purchase the prior year's materials. If you can train during the April-May time frame, register using the current year's brochure. Please visit LGC's Board of Review page for more information, including links to materials and streaming "Mock Board of Review" videos. WebinarsOn September 19th the Local Government Center made a technology change to how we present the Current Issues series of Wisline training. Local Government Specialist Al Probst presented "Developing the Annual Budget" as aWebinar using Blackboard Collaborate. This technology enabled the presenter to be both visually and verbally interactive with the participants while a change in direction in the presentation from strictly discussion budget requirements to an approach more focused on the actual mechanics of producing a functional annual budget gave participants a much more "hands on" feel for the subject matter. An additional capability with this technology is that, as soon as registration issues are concluded, the program will be available for viewing from its archived location at the convenience of any viewer at a computer with Java capabilities. The Local Government Center is now looking into using the same technology for presentations on "The Annual Town Meeting," "Alcohol and Beverage Licensing," and "Board of Review." Look for more announcements on this exciting educational technology advancement on the LGC webpage. A streaming video recording of this webinar is now available from The Learning Store for $35. Special Note: Conducting Local ElectionsWisconsin's Government Accountability Board (GAB) will be assuming full responsibility for the future training and education of election officials and clerks. As a result, the "Conducting Local Elections" WisLine series will no longer be offered by the Local Government Center. Recordings of prior WisLine sessions may still be purchased from the Local Government Center as audiostreams via The Learning Store. Future training opportunities will be offered by the GAB. Refer to the GAB website (http://gab.wi.gov/) for more information or contact Allison Coakley, Training Officer, at (608) 261-2033 with any questions you might have.
