The NSW Ombudsman is coming to Tamworth this November

Date posted:

The NSW Ombudsman Office is participating in NSW ICAC’s Rural and Regional Outreach Program in the New England Region, Tamworth in mid-November 2024.

Our mission is to ensure fairness for the people of NSW, and one of the ways we achieve this is by upskilling government sector employees. By providing training, we aim to enhance the quality of public services across our community.

We are delivering two training sessions on 13 November, and strongly encourage participants from NSW government agencies, departments, local governments, and community service providers to attend. This is a valuable opportunity for all interested parties to gain insights and skills that will aid in delivering high-quality public services.
