SEMINARS, CONFERENCES AND CLASSES

We are fortunate and proud to be associated with the School of Government, UNC at Chapel Hill, a leader in teaching, advising, and consulting for local and state government officials in North Carolina. A focal point of the School's work is planning, administering and teaching in continuing education courses for the state's government officials.
The School and faculty have been an integral and invaluable part of the success of the NCAGP and its members. The School is actively involved in the education programs offered by NCAGP and the Certified Local Government Purchasing Officer (CLGPO) certification.
