Select board authorizes chair to sign cybersecurity-training grant agreement
Summary
The Townshend Select Board authorized the chair to sign a cybersecurity-training agreement so town staff and officials can participate in virtual, certification-focused training at no cost to the town.
The select board authorized the chair to sign a cybersecurity-training agreement that will send local officials and administrators through a state-provided virtual training and certification program.
The grants coordinator described the program as virtual, self-paced or schedulable as a group, and stated there is no money exchanged in the program — it provides training and certification for local administrators. The chair asked for a motion to authorize signature; the motion carried by voice vote.
Board members said the training could be useful for insurance or operational resilience but provided no additional budgetary commitments.
