Leadership Application

The registration fee is $2,700; however, with the FGFOA subsidizing the fee, the cost to members is $1,495.

The registration fee is designed to cover all costs (i.e., training, materials, personality profile, lodging, and food) other than parking and transportation to and from the host hotel at the beginning and end of the program.

The intent of the training is not aimed at qualifying for CPE credit per se, but some aspects of the program will be eligible. Currently, the coursework will qualify for approximately 34 hours of behavioral (BEH) and 2 hours of technical business (TB) continuing education.

Lodging is mandatory because some participants living in the local vicinity may be tempted to not participate in scheduled after-hour events and because some governmental agencies may frown on having local participants pay for lodging. The Board and Committee have designed the program to allow participants to be completely focused on the event.
