ABout the William “King” Cole Series

This nationally respected educational program—named posthumously in honor of William “King” Cole, a respected friend to TCMA and former Texas city manager—focuses on knowledge, commitment, and ethics in the spirit of “King.”

Session 1 introduces the fundamentals of city management—the basic, core duties and responsibilities of today’s city management professional. Session 2 continues to build on this foundation by presenting different educational modules to complement what was learned in Session 1. Both sessions feature comprehensive discussion, top-notch instruction, and ample networking opportunities.

Please note that the two sessions are independent of each other. Although most people attend both sessions, attendance at Session 1 is not a prerequisite for attending Session 2.
