E-COW is an interactive online training that outlines the roles and responsibilities of the community planning volunteers as they relate to Citywide planning issues, community plan preparation, and the development and regulatory processes of the City.
As a community planning group volunteer, it is essential that you understand your role and responsibilities as outlined in Council Policy 600-24 (PDF) and this training.
E-COW Training
Please set aside approximately two (2) hours to complete the E-COW training. Since E-COW doesn't allow you to save your progress, you must take the training in its entirety before closing. Otherwise, you'll have to start at the beginning when you re-open the training.
