Understanding the Challenge
Many clerks undertake CiLCA alongside busy workloads, evening meetings and personal commitments. Whilst the qualification is highly rewarding, finding the time and confidence to progress can often be challenging.
Domino provides practical support designed to help clerks stay organised, focused and on track throughout their CiLCA journey.
Evidence Mapping & Portfolio Planning
One of the most common challenges faced by clerks is understanding what evidence is required and how existing council documents can support portfolio submissions.
We can help clerks identify suitable evidence, organise documentation and develop a clear plan for progressing through the qualification.
Accountability & Momentum
Many CiLCA candidates begin with enthusiasm but struggle to maintain momentum as workloads increase and priorities change.
Regular support sessions can help clerks stay focused, monitor progress and maintain accountability throughout the qualification process.
Confidence Building
CiLCA can sometimes feel overwhelming, particularly when interpreting requirements or assessing whether evidence is suitable.
Our support aims to provide reassurance, practical guidance and a trusted sounding board throughout the process.
CiLCA Accelerator Programme
For councils wishing to provide enhanced support, Domino offers a CiLCA Accelerator Programme which combines CiLCA support with practical administrative assistance.
This approach helps create dedicated time for study whilst ensuring day-to-day council responsibilities continue to be effectively managed.
Support may include:
Administrative assistance
Agenda preparation support
Draft minute preparation
Policy review support
Governance assistance
Project administration

What We Do Not Do
To maintain the integrity of the qualification, Domino does not:
Complete portfolios on behalf of candidates
Write submissions
Undertake assessment activities
Guarantee successful completion
Our role is to support, guide and encourage throughout the process.
Why Councils invest in CiLCA support?
Supporting a clerk through CiLCA is an investment in both the individual and the council.
Successful completion can strengthen governance knowledge, improve confidence, support career development and contribute to a more resilient organisation.
Providing practical support throughout the qualification process can also help reduce delays, improve completion rates and maximise the value of the council's investment in professional development.
