1:00 pm

This webinar is designed for:
- Authority Board Members
- Managers
- Engineers
- Solicitors
- Other Staff that Handle Public Monies

As a local public official, elected or appointed, the annual filing of the Statement of Financial Interests is a requirement of holding office and/or receiving compensation.

Since becoming effective January 1, 1979, the State Ethics Commission has remained ever vigilant and steadfast in its mission of ensuring the public’s confidence in state and local government.  In fulfilling its directive, the Commission has mandated, monitored, and maintained the filings of Statements of Financial Interests, which promote transparency and guard against conflicts of interests.

In this session, questions such as Who, What, When, Where and Why will be answered, as well as a step-by-step guide to completing the form accurately and completely.  This 45-minute webinar will consist of a PowerPoint presentation, followed by a Question and Answer period to address any issues not covered during the main presentation.
