The Managing Community Engagement program has been designed for people in public sector roles who deliver services and programs direct to the community and/or have responsibility for improving community engagement practices in their region, team or local area.

These managers will generally be at the AO6–AO8 level or equivalent and are likely to have some experience and skill in working with community groups and engagement. For more information, refer to Program goals.

The program will be delivered via a series of regional and Brisbane-based workshops. To register your interest in participating in a workshop, contact info@getinvolved.qld.gov.au.

So that you get the most out of the program and the facilitators have the chance to learn more about your community engagement experience, it is recommended that you undertake a few brief pre-attendance activities.

The program has been organised and sponsored by the Department of Communities; it was developed in partnership with the Open Learning Institute of TAFE and the Department of Industrial Relations, in close consultation with a reference committee.
