1291 - ACCG County Retirement Programs

Employee retirement represents a significant portion of a county’s budget.  Retirement plans are essentially employee contracts that exist in specific economic, social, political, moral, and ethical contexts. While Commissioners make retirement policy decisions infrequently, these decisions have long-term implications that are especially significant during periods of changing economic conditions. Part of the County Operations and Management specialty track, County Retirement Programs: What They Mean to Your Employees and Your Budget will help county commissioners better understand their roles, responsibilities, and options when setting retirement policy. There are nine other core courses in the County Operations and Management specialty track. These include: Management and Human Resources Responsibilities, Commission and Staff Relations, County Insurance and Risk Management, Capital Improvement Planning, Environmental Management, Managing Meetings, Public Works and Transportation, Technology Solutions, and Water Management.
