Continuing Education

Florida is proud that we are among the leaders nationwide, with more than 140 ICMA-credentialed managers and candidates. To assist its members, FCCMA has tried to plan workshops that address the training areas that are shown to be needed by the Florida managers; practice areas are listed for each session in this program. If you have a particular ICMA practice area you would like to see addressed in the future, please let someone from the FCCMA staff know.

Session Attendance Data

To provide the best education possible for our members, we will be collecting data on what types of sessions are most popular. You have been provided with a badge containing a barcode that can be scanned as you enter each session.
