New Main Street(tm) executive directors are required to attend the Main Street Now Conference(tm) at the first available opportunity after accepting the position even if the out-going director attended the conference the previous year.

If you can't attend the training, then you can make it up.  All you have to do is find other training opportunities which can be webinars (the NMSC has plenty on their site), local trainings or workshops, online/virtual conferences or workshops, etc. - it just needs to pertain to Main Street.  Send the proposed make-up training plan to your liaison for approval.  The OMSC will also require proof of participation which can be your registration or confirmation email.  All trainings must be made up in the calendar year.

Please contact me or your liaison if you have any questions.

Have a great weekend,
Buffy
