The Town of Chatham is pleased to announce the launch of its 2025 Municipal Academy, a nine-session program designed to provide residents with a deeper understanding of how their local government operates. The Academy will run weekly on Wednesdays from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., beginning September 3, 2025.
Open to a limited group of 12 participants (18 years and over), the Municipal Academy offers a unique opportunity for community members to engage with municipal staff, explore Town departments, and gain insight into the work being done across Chatham. Each session will focus on a different Department, highlighting its responsibilities, staffing, and current projects or initiatives. Sessions are held-in person at various municipal buildings.
