The California City Management Foundation (CCMF) is excited to announce that its annual New & Future City Managers Seminar (NFCM) will take place from Nov. 6-8, 2024 at the Westin Pasadena. The application deadline is Friday, Aug. 16, 2024.
“Every year, the New & Future City Managers Seminar is a highly-anticipated event,” said Executive Director Ken Pulskamp. “The seminar is always a highlight for me, and I know that participants will benefit greatly from the event as well. Beyond learning from seasoned city managers, participants also gain a close-knit network for ongoing support and connection.”
The NFCM Seminar is a longstanding annual CCMF workshop, geared toward helping new city managers and those seeking to become city managers. In this intensive multi-day workshop, senior city managers mentor younger city managers and aspiring city managers on topics such as fiscal management, politics, legal issues and public relations. Up to 25 applicants will spend their time together in close discussions, eating meals together and staying at the same hotel while learning keen insights from experienced city managers.
