Testimonial What a fantastic workshop yesterday! I definitely feel empowered and better-equipped to field board chairs and commissioner’s questions about Robert’s Rules of Order. So many great little nuggets of knowledge! I also enjoyed hearing other participants in the breakout session, and was surprised that we all had varying takeaways! Lisa Arpin, Branford Connecticut Town Clerk

Outstanding clearly presented materials. Good refresher for those with experience and also good introduction for new clerks or board secretaries. Council, Assembly and Board members will also benefit so they are clear on how to handle themselves in a meeting and best practices. Total confidence not only in the instruction but also the materials and follow up provided after. THANK YOU!!

The Meeting Minutes & Role of the Clerk Workshop was very informative and straight to the point! I was able to take what I learned and apply it to the minutes I was working on. I look forward to attending other workshops in the future. Thank you, Ann!
