MUNICIPAL ADMINISTRATION PROGRAM A four unit, lecture or correspondence program in the basics of municipal administration, finance and management. A major component of several public administration programs in Ontario's Community Colleges and the educational qualification for the AMCTO's Certified Municipal Officer (CMO) designation, MAP provides participants with an excellent foundation in local government.

MUNICIPAL ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE PROGRAM This two unit program is an advanced training program in the area of finance, taxation and accounting. It is available through correspondence with the Association or through colleges in Ontario.

MUNICIPAL LAW This four unit program examines basic municipal law, torts, contracts and land related law. At this time, the programs are only available through Ontario colleges or municipal locations throughout the province.

TRAINING MANUALS The Association has over 50 training manuals dealing with issues ranging from human resources to legislation. A listing of these manuals can be found on the Association's web site.

ONTARIO MUNICIPAL DIRECTORY This is Ontario's premiere source of municipal information. It contains all municipality locations, phone and fax number, contact information, etc. It is also an excellent way of advertising to municipalities across the province and beyond.

MUNICIPAL MONITOR MAGAZINE This bi-monthly magazine deals with topical issues affecting municipal government. It too is an excellent vehicle for advertising to municipalities.

ANNUAL CONFERENCE AMCTO holds its Annual General Meeting and Professional Development Institute in June of each year. For four days senior municipal officials from around the province come together for networking, education sessions and a trade show. Trade show and sponsorship opportunities are available by contacting the Association.

INFORMATION SERVICES In addition to the formal training opportunities provided by AMCTO, the Association is also engaged in several less formal activities which allow members to network with colleagues and receive valuable and timely information.

GOVERNMENT RELATIONS Acting on behalf of the membership, AMCTO utilizes the expertise of individual members and its reputation as a professional organization in an attempt to promote, to all levels of government, legislative and policy changes that will improve fiscal management and administrative practices in municipalities.
