District Official Training Program Recognition

NACD's District Officials State Training Recognition Program, established in the spring of 2010, recognizes states that have developed and implemented a statewide district official training program. To be recognized under the program, states must apply and self-assess that their state training program for district officials meets at least 50 percent of the minimum training elements.

NACD's District Operations and Member Services Committee reviews all applications each year at the NACD Summer Board meeting. State training programs meeting the requirements are then recognized during the next NACD Annual Meeting. Links to each state's training information will be placed on the NACD website as examples for others in developing or improving their district official training program.

If your state wishes to be considered for recognition this year, simply fill out the checklist. Applications must be submitted by December 1, 2011 to Phylis Vandevere via email at phylis-vandevere@nacdnet.org or postal mail at 110 Fairchild Cove, Canton, MS 39046. If you have questions, please contact Phylis at (601)-941-8251.
