Accreditation Open Forum “How to Achieve Buy-In Across Your Agency to Become Accredited”
You’ve got your team set up to begin the accreditation process. You open your copy of the Public Works Management Practices Manual and the self-assessment software and notice chapters 2-9 involve human resources, finance, legal, communications, and information technology. All functions that are largely handled outside of your department. Now what?
This hour-long forum is designed to help you learn how to reach across your organization to other departments to achieve buy-in and gain assistance. Our panel of accreditation managers and evaluators will look at a few practices and provide suggestions on how to approach them.
Although open forums require registration, this is a free virtual opportunity to learn more about the APWA’s accreditation process and discover the essential steps needed to join the ranks of agencies that have successfully achieved accreditation.
