Mayo 8, 2023 - Mayo 12, 2023
Ofrecido en inglés
As communities continue to struggle with effects of the pandemic and meet an array of urgent needs, from affordable housing to infrastructure, sound municipal finance practices have never been more critical.
While an influx of federal funds is helping local governments serve their residents and invest for the future, these funds are limited, temporary, and often competitive. Communities need to build the capacity to spend federal money well, with equity, efficiency, and sustainability at the center of their decisions. Further, they need to be prepared to adequately and fairly generate their own revenue, especially when federal funding diminishes.
Whether you want to better understand public-private partnerships, debt and municipal securities, or leading land-based finance strategies to finance infrastructure projects, this five-day online program will give you the skills and insights you need as you advance your career in local government or community development.
