GEDI partnered with ACCMA Alabama to host the 2026 Summer Conference last week. Over 200 people attended and enjoyed some fantastic speakers and networking opportunities. We awarded certificates to 17 members who completed the local government professional management program.

We also celebrated the birthday of our Assistant Director of Training and Education, Matt Ulmer and appreciate everyone who made his day special.
