It is important to evaluate and meet the professional development needs of MME members through effective and pertinent programming and financial assistance.
MME Winter InstituteThe Winter Institute is the premiere annual event, which takes place at different venues around the state. Its primary purpose is to provide opportunities for professional development. It also provides an ideal setting for the sharing of ideas, mentoring, networking, and benefiting from the collective experience of the membership. MME Summer WorkshopThe Summer Workshop offers a chance for managers and their families to network and learn in a more relaxed environment. The workshop is an annual event that takes place at the end of July. It is often held in a resort-like setting, but it has also taken place in downtowns that offer numerous outdoor cultural and social amenities. Early Career Outreach EventsThe Early Career Outreach Committee provides networking and professional development opportunities for early to mid-career local government professionals and those new to the profession. Michigan Certified Public Manager ProgramThe purpose of the Michigan - CPM® program is to generate excellence in the public and nonprofit sectors by enabling public managers to satisfy citizens' expectations that their government will perform effectively and honestly, and to make good on those values and commitments that have been given expression in public policies, laws, mission and performance goals.
