We are in times that hardly could have been anticipated. Yet we
hope the practices, tools and knowledge gained through CSAC Institute for Excellence in
County Government courses have helped county executives,
elected officials and managers better respond to the challenges.
We have a terrific slate of courses lined up for you in October
which highlight budgeting, finances, IT and strategy. We’ve
combined two classes into an intensive two-day Realignment 101
Workshop that will be invaluable to all. For Supervisors-elect,
plan now to attend the acclaimed New Supervisors Institute
in November. These classes will fill quickly! Read on for
details.
Continue your professional development through the courses
offered exclusively for California counties from CSAC Institute.
The classes expand your capacity to manage, lead and govern in
complex and ambiguous times. From understanding pension systems
and county finances to recruiting senior executives and leading
organizations through crises … some great classes are ahead at
the Institute next month. Read on for more!
As the Dean of the CSAC Institute for Excellence in County
Government, I am proud of the growth we’ve been able to achieve
in the past year. We have begun offering classes in San Diego and
Merced in the Central Valley, hosted by the counties. And we have
plans to expand again next year to offer courses in Contra Costa
County for people in the Bay Area.
CSAC Institute has partnered with California State
University-Northridge to offer an exclusive, executive-level
Master of Public Administration degree program.
