The Elected Officials Institute is specifically designed for South Carolina municipal elected officials. It consists of both in-person sessions and sessions broadcast via satellite to councils of governments locations across the state.
Elected officials who complete all of the coursework receive a certificate and graduate from the Institute.
The in-person sessions are offered in conjunction with the Municipal Association’s Hometown, SC Legislative Action Day held each winter. Officials must take Session A and Session B in consecutive order.
The classes broadcast via satellite are core courses and are offered at three different times during the year on the Hometown Network.
