Conference Coverage

APCO 2015 Begins with Executive Council Meetings

For some the annual conference has already begun starting with the executive council meetings that took place Friday and Saturday. APCO International President John Wright made opening remarks and the committee welcomed the new executive council members. On Friday the council participated in workshops focused on the Institute, APCO’s learning and training department, and in the afternoon the council members broke into groups to discuss APCO’s long range strategic plan. On Saturday the council reconvened to go through the group leaders report and financial report as well as the regional election results.
