Anyone serving as a Commissioner on a public Board should be aware of a unique opportunity to participate in a training being put on by the Washington State Office of the Attorney General and Washington State Archives. The training will enable you to satisfy the training requirements related to the Public Records Act Chapter 42.56 RCW, the Open Public Meetings Act Chapter 42.30 RCW, and the required records management and retention laws training under Chapter 40.14 RCW. Participants will receive a Certificate of Completion at the close of the meeting.

The training will begin at 8:30 am on Wednesday, November 28 at the Orcas Island Fire and Rescue Eastsound Fire Hall. The morning session will run through 11:30 and consist of Open Government and Records Management Training. Following a lunch break from 11:30 – 1:00, the afternoon will be spent on advanced Public Records Act training designed for Public Records Officers; however, all are welcome to stay for the afternoon session which wraps up at 3:45 pm.
