Attention: Encumbrance Clerks and Treasurers
This is last year's information.
September 12, 2007
Meridian Convention Center - Oklahoma City
By now everyone is familiar and in compliance with the recent law change for Encumbrance Clerks and Treasurers. You can count on us to provide opportunities at each of our two annual conferences to get the 6 hours of training that meets the continuing education required by law to maintain that requirement.
The topics covered are those listed in the legislation and are similar to the ones offered a year ago. We plan to continue offering these sessions until the need no longer exists.
Pre-register here before September 7th
