Many municipal job positions have specific training and networking needs, and the Municipal Association of South Carolina's affiliate associations offer opportunities to meet those needs.
The Municipal Technology Association of SC promotes municipalities' effective use of technology. MTASC exposes its members to a broad range of technology systems, platforms and solutions. The training serves IT staff and those with GIS responsibilities, in addition to employees who work in other departments but have technology-related duties.
Each year, MTASC offers its members training through a couple of regular meetings. The 2023 Spring Meeting covered cybersecurity updates, the Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center, using GIS and drone technology together, and the evolving relationship of IT and employee retention. The 2023 Annual Meeting will take place September 20 – 22 at the Hilton Myrtle Beach.
