Advancing Municipal Leaders through practical, accessible education opportunities.
WORKING AS ONE. ADVANCING ALL.
Advancing Municipal Leaders (AML) is a member-driven education program designed to provide continuous learning opportunities and help local elected officials be successful in public office.
​
Through AML, municipal officials will learn how to meet - and exceed - the requirements of their role in office. Courses include a comprehensive overview of North Carolina municipal government and are presented by the League and our partners who are dedicated to the learning and development of municipal officials.
​
Courses are primarily web-based, and offer attendees both live webinar and on-demand opportunities. ​​Courses will directly address the League's Vision 2030 operating principles and will be categorized by the following learning topics: Risk Management, Economic Development, Advocacy, Public Good, Covid-19, and About the League.

CERTIFICATION LEVELS
Working toward achieving the Order of Municipal Leadership will provide you with the basics of municipal government and connect you to the resources and materials that will prepare you for your role.
AML's second level of achievement builds upon your understanding of municipal government. While working toward the Order of Municipal Dedication, municipal leaders will gain an even deeper understanding of governing at the local level.
During this final level of certification, municipal officials will be asked to choose a specialization to focus your efforts and increase your mastery. Officials who achieve the Order of Municipal Expertise not only work ton continue their own education, but also help newer officials begin their own journeys.
ADVISORY COMMITTEE
The Advancing Municipal Leaders Advisory Committee works to identify the ever-changing educational needs of municipal elected officials across the state. Members meet regularly to help guide the AML program's efforts.
