Don't Leave Your Government's Fiscal Health to ChanceBad debt choices can affect the fiscal health of a jurisdiction for generations. Don’t leave it to chance, or rely on the advice of a municipal financial "consultant."
Get the knowledge you need for yourself, and be the key to sound debt decisions at your city or county government. The Center for State and Local Finance (CSLF) has designed a debt management course for you that focuses on the strategies and best practices in the issuance, uses, and management of debt.
The course takes place Sept. 21-23 at Georgia State University’s Andrew Young School, which is ranked 5th in public finance and budgeting by U.S. News and World Report. The lead instructor is Bart Hildreth, a nationally recognized expert in state and local finance and municipal securities.
 Hildreth is a professor and former dean at the Andrew Young School; the editor-in-chief of the only refereed journal devoted to municipal securities, the Municipal Finance Journal; and executive director of the National Tax Association. He previously served on Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, as well.
