The Florida League of Cities is proud to bring you the Institute for Elected Municipal Officials I (IEMO I). This educational program is specially designed for newly elected officials and those with less than one term in office.
The event will take place June 6-7, 2025 at the Renaissance Boca Raton Hotel, located at 2000 NW 19th Street, Boca Raton FL, 33431.
Who should attend IEMO?
Created in 1992, the Institute for Elected Municipal Officials was designed to help elected officials in Florida's municipalities to effectively meet the requirements of their elected role. Its intensive academic program offers a comprehensive overview of Florida municipal government, presented by a faculty of top professionals in the field. IEMO is a two-day program structured in a Friday through Saturday format and is offered three times per year at different locations throughout the state.
Curriculum
The curriculum is divided into several instructional modules, including:
- The Municipal Landscape in Florida
- Public Official's Liability
- Effective Council Techniques
- Parliamentary Procedures
These topics were selected to provide a comprehensive overview of the critical issues that are addressed by municipal government officials. It is suggested that participants review their municipal charter, policies and budget to prepare for the classes, and may want to bring these materials along. Speakers will provide hand-outs and resource material. For more information regarding the IEMO program, please visit the League’s website here.
A certificate of attendance is provided upon successful completion of the program.
