New commissioners are introduced to county government and prepared to meet the variety of challenges they face upon taking office through this two-and-a-half-day program. This training—required by Georgia law for county commissioners—is coordinated by the Institute and the Association County Commissioners of Georgia (ACCG). Commissioners receive reference materials to aid them in making decisions and carrying out their responsibilities.
