Newly elected District I Commissioner-elect Johnny Wilson and District II Commissioner Dee Clemmons participated in the Association County Commissioners of Georgia’s (ACCG) 2016 Newly Elected Commissioners Conference, held this week in Athens, Georgia. Over the three-day conference, which was hosted by UGA’s Carl Vinson Institute of Government and the ACCG, both Clemmons and Wilson gained valuable training and education in political leadership, with this year’s theme “Keys to Successful Governance.” The course was designed to help prepare newly elected commissioners to take office and the conference’s agenda offered valuable resources and critical information on the roles and responsibilities of elected officials, as well an overview of the workings of county government. Commissioners were also afforded the opportunity to meet other elected commissioners and help build a network of valuable contacts in order to share ideas and experiences.
