2024 CMO regional training have ended for this year. We encourage elected officials and municipal personnel to join ALM at the remaining events scheduled for this year. Looking forward, ALM will host four regional orientation conferences following the 2025 municipal elections.
Thank you ALM membership for the dedication to expanding your knowledge of best practices and the fundamentals of municipal government. Stay tuned for future training opportunities.
Earning the professional designation of Certified Municipal Official prepares elected officials to serve their citizens and help create better communities. This designation requires 10 credit hours of required and elective coursework (Core Curriculum) and 30 additional credit hours by attending League events approved for CMO credit hours. Strengthen Your Core: Fundamentals of Municipal Government qualifies as four (4) elective core curriculum hours. Additionally, the League recognizes, commends and awards municipalities where the mayor and all councilmembers are Certified Municipal Officials thereby distinguishing the municipality as a Certified Municipality. This designation represents the mayor and all councilmembers have completed a minimum of 40 credit hours of formal training on municipal government conducted or endorsed by the Alabama League of Municipalities.
