Description:
Join our Commissioner Fundamentals training to create a strong foundation for your work as a housing commissioner. The commissioner’s role is complex and can be daunting at times. We hope you will join us as we explore the roles and responsibilities of housing commissioners. Participants will also discover that the commissioner's role is multi-faceted; commissioners are advocates, leaders, team builders, and strategists. You’ll also learn the intricacies of board-staff relationships and boundaries and review the principles and strategies of board governance, as well as some of the oversight functions of the board.
Commissioner Fundamentals is one of two NAHRO courses required to obtain your NAHRO Commissioners Certification. Becoming a NAHRO Certified Commissioner is a great way to show your commitment to becoming a knowledgeable, engaged, and ethical leader in your organization. Ethics for Commissioners is the other course you’ll want to complete to apply for your certification.
