Civics Training and No-Blame Problem-Solving with the Citizens Campaign


ASPA was pleased to produce an online civics training seminar with The Citizens Campaign in September 2024, to be repeated in person at the 2025 Annual Conference. This webinar provided a leadership training opportunity to teach attendees how to solve problems in your community, empowering you and your fellow citizens to get results on the issues you care about. You don’t have to sit on the sidelines waiting to react. You can become a “citizen leader” on the frontlines of government decisionmaking.

This isn’t the civics your parents and grandparents studied. It’s active, practitioner-informed leadership training, employing a powerful no-blame approach. Those who attended received a certificate demonstrating knowledge and skills gained during this hands-on workshop.

The webinar may have concluded but those in the ASPA commmunity can take this course any time they want and receive a certificate for their education. Click the below link to load the webinar and click this link to access the full coursework.
