Symposia

Discussion Opportunities

During the year, the Maryland Association of Counties (MACo) offers symposia on relevant topics. These one-day events give attendees the opportunity to learn about and discuss at length topics that require more depth than a panel at one of our larger conferences or events. Examples of these topics include:

• Phase II Watershed Implementation Plan
• Public-Private Partnerships
• Purchasing & Procurement
• Substance Abuse

Topic Ideas

If you have a topic you’d like to see discussed at a MACo symposium, please email Virginia White.
