Commissioners Campbell and Tucker complete CCC training


Commissioners Campbell and Tucker Complete
Certified County Commissioner Training
The Florida Association of Counties (FAC) recently honored Okaloosa County Commissioner Sherry Campbell and Commissioner Elaine Tucker with the Certified County Commissioner (CCC) designation following their completion of a comprehensive study program developed by the association.
The CCC certification is not a requirement to serve as a county commissioner in Florida. However, county commissioners may voluntarily enroll in the program and complete a series of courses totaling 36 hours. The coursework is designed to provide information and enhance skills relevant to a commissioner’s duties and responsibilities as an elected official.
“More than 30 county commissioners earned their CCC designation this year,” said FAC Executive Director Chris Holley. “That’s the largest number of graduates we’ve had in one year since the program started. Their involvement serves as a testament to the commitment of Florida’s local government officials to make their communities better places to live and work.”
The CCC program coursework covers a variety of topics, such as county government roles and responsibilities, county government structure and authority, financial management, ethics and sunshine law, negotiation skills, economic development, and effective communication. Completion of all coursework averages 18 to 24 months.
