During the past two months FLGR carried out distance learning courses:
- Good Governance Principles at Local Level Course is based on the 12 good governance principles, formulated in the Strategy for innovation and good governance at local level (Barcelona 2007). The course defines the 12 principles, the legal framework for their application and showcases good practices from Europe, USA and Bulgaria. The online training course consists of five lectures and Final Test.
- Prevention of the Corruption on Local Level Course is developed in accordance of the Methodology of the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-HABITAT). The course introduces anti-corruption measures in the field of public procurement at local level.
Participants of the courses were municipal experts, representatives of municipal institutions, community centres, academia throughout the country.
The course graduates were certified by FLGR.
Here is feedback from the participants in the courses:
For me the both courses were interesting. I learned new things. Distance learning I like very much. Thank the team developed the lessons and additional materials to them.

Both courses were very interesting and I think in my future work will be very useful.
Ch. Prof. Sevdalina Hristova, University of Economics – Varna
Personally for me the course was useful because I have been for nine years director of a municipal cultural institution, and no one ever taught me how to deal with my daily duties. Though theoretically, for the first time this happens through the FLGR course.
For me it was especially important to learn what the criteria were for good governance under the various international and national documents; and also to assess the level where the institution that I administered was.
Eleonora Avdzhieva, director of the Crafts Museum of Trojan
Thank you for the interesting course. I had to join the both courses!
