2019 IIMC Annual Conference

The IIMC Annual Conference is dedicated to being the foremost education and networking experience for Municipal Clerk professionals. Innovative learning formats and engaging spaces allow you to align your education to your own personal needs, interests, and learning level. As you administer your own education experience with your professional objectives in mind, you will be able to challenge yourself to explore new formats and find fun in your learning. For five days you also will be part of an extensive learning community.

As Municipal Clerks, you are the gateway to city hall and are, unequivocally, one of the team members the elected officials count on to make sure public meetings, public records, elections and special projects operate smoothly. This requires you to engage in continuing education and networking to keep abreast of changing laws and trends.

IIMC Annual Conferences provide a vehicle for members to receive the background and knowledge needed to help them deal with current problems. The future of municipal government depends on informed public officials.

In Birmingham, Delegates will hear keynote speakers who will speak to you about “Finding the Funny in Change” and “Play Something We Can Dance To.” Other Education highlights include four Athenian Dialogues, six Academy Sessions and a bevy of concurrent sessions that include: We’ve Got to be More Creative Around Here!; Be Forward Focused! The Power of Positive Leadership; Rethinking Records & Information Management in an Electronic World; Ethics in Public Service; Administering Ranked Choice Voting; Making Diversity Work for You; Speak with Confidence, Comfort, and Conviction; Cultural Competency: The Lifelong Journey; Preventing Sexual Harassment in the Workplace; and Municipal Problem Solving: We Are Stronger When We Share.

All of these sessions can help you and your community to stay ahead of a challenging and fluctuating environment.
