It's created new definitions of what news is and how its reported, including the degree of accuracy and expediency. Today, local incidents can receive international attention within minutes of the occurrence, creating havoc for those agencies involved. Punta Gorda City Manager Howard Kunik, Sun Newspapers Publisher Robert Lee, and Sun Newspapers Executive Editor Jim Gouvellis will discuss the Punta Gorda incident involving the police shooting of a senior citizen attending a police citizens’ academy. What happened? How was it handled? What lessons were learned. etc.? Managers, Police Chiefs, other key staff members, and students of public administration are encouraged to attend this session and take advantage of this excellent opportunity to learn from those who were involved in the response to this incident. This is an informal program and attendees will be encouraged to ask questions and offer perspectives on this evolving trend in today's public agencies.

9:00 am: 2017 Leesburg Onsite Training Session9:00 am: 2017 Leesburg Onsite Training Session – “Local Governments are One Incident Away From Being the Focus on International Attention: A Review of the Response in the Orlando Pulse Nightclub Tragedy” Technology (notably social media) has changed the how, when, and where local government news is reported, and has changed what local governments must do to prepare, react, and respond when a notable incident occurs in their area. It’s not a question of if an incident will occur, but when, how often, and whether local officials will be prepared to respond. There may be no other training session offered by FCCMA that universally applies to local government managers than this session. Orlando city officials will walk attendees through their experiences with the Pulse Nightclub tragedy and summarize lessons learned. This will be an excellent opportunity for attendees to learn from Orlando's experience and to ask questions and discuss the applicability of those lessons to their own jurisdictions. SPEAKERS: Byron W. Brooks, AICP, Chief Administrative Officer, City of Orlando Captain Mark Canty, SWAT Commander, Orlando Police Department Michele Brennan, Communications and Neighborhood Relations Director, City of Orlando Leesburg Community Building 109 E.

The Florida Center for Cybersecurity was created during the 2014 legislative session. It is a shared resource for research, education, and outreach across the state and beyond, and is located at the University of South Florida.

9:00 am: 2017 North Miami Beach Onsite Training Session9:00 am: 2017 North Miami Beach Onsite Training Session – “Ethics and the Florida Local Government Professional” Annual ethics training is now a state mandate for all city and county elected officials in Florida. Questions regarding the legal application of these requirements should be addressed by your city or county attorney, as applicable. Yet, on a day-to-day basis, when ethical issues arise, far too often, elected officials are forced to seek immediate guidance/advise, not from the City Attorney, but from the local manager or other key staff members. Moreover, local government employees are also required to adhere to many of the same ethical constraints that elected officials must comply with and, again, they too seek guidance/advise from their local government manager or other key staff members. It is, therefore, incumbent upon the local manager and his/her staff to understand the fundamental requirements that the state has legislated upon local officials and employees. This FCCMA training is offered, in conjunction with the Dade and Broward Manager organizations, to provide that needed training for managers and their staff responsible for applying these statutes. This is intended to be an interactive session and the training satisfies the four-hour ethics training that FCCMA now requires annually for their members.
