Municipal Training

Please note: MTAS is changing to a new training registration and tracking system to better meet the needs of our customers! With these improvements MTAS will change to an online registration system effective January 1, 2012, and will accept registration and payment by credit or debit card through your Solution Point account.

Most of our customers - the professionals serving cities and towns in Tennessee - will find that this is an improvement, but the needs of every city or town is important to us. If you need assistance with registration or payment, please call Elaine or Sandy at (865) 974-0411.

MTAS offers a comprehensive program addressing the training needs of elected and appointed municipal officials. MTAS strives to offer quality-training programs in sites as close to each city hall as possible.

The program content includes topics such as leadership, strategic planning, management skills, performance measurement, and technical courses related to municipal functions. MTAS consultants provide the instruction for all technical courses in the areas of finance, public works, law, personnel, police, and fire. Consultants for MTAS and contract instructors deliver all of the leadership, supervisory, and management courses.
