Are you a mid-career professional or do you know someone who is...

  • New to local government but not new to management?
  • An experienced local government department head looking to make the jump to the manager's seat?
  • Ready to connect with other mid-career professionals to identify and develop signature leadership practices and strengthen core management skills?
  • Looking for your next challenge?

ICMA University’s Mid-Career Managers Institute is designed for ICMA members and nonmembers who are either:

  • Credentialed and want to engage in a focused course of study and connection with others who are mid-career
  • Not yet credentialed or have management experience in fields other than local government AND want to build strong ties with the profession and strengthen management skills with the goal of becoming credentialed managers.
