Local governments, like many other industries, have embraced the
digital transformation to improve efficiences and reduce
costs. However, the integration of digital technologies also

program.
As a county leader, you likely know that data is increasingly
central to the way public agencies evaluate new investments and

colleagues. Or you can expand and accelerate your abilities
through professional development.
