The Freedom of Information Act 2000 will be implemented across the UK on January 1, 2005. That's less than four months away! Are you and your organisation ready? If in doubt, sign up for this half-day workshop on FoI led by the Constitution Unit, which has been running training sessions on FoI for over five years.

The half-day event consists of three workshops over the course of one afternoon. Each workshop is led by an experienced facilitator and focuses on a theme central to successful implementation of FoI:
· Training public sector staff in preparation for FoI implementation
· Working with media requests for information
· Understanding the key features of the FOI Act which relate to commercial information and why this is a sensitive area
