MAY 2017 - NEWS & HIGHLIGHTS

The CPMRA is moving...

After 26 years in the basement of Harrison Hall, the Center will be relocating to a new office on the third floor of Harrison Hall. The move is something of a return to our roots, as the Center started in an office on the third floor. We will be in a temporary space while the new space is being constructed this summer. We look forward to starting the 2017-18 academic year above ground and with windows overlooking the beautiful Miami campus!

CPMRA presented OTA Leadership Academy Classes at 2017 Winter Conference

Continuing our 25+ year partnership with the Ohio Township Association, Center staff participated in the OTA's 2017 Winter Conference in Columbus, Ohio on January 25-27. In addition to our information booth in the main corridor of the Greater Columbus Convention Center, we presented three OTA Leadership Academy classes: General Workshop, Technology in Government, and Communicating and Working with the Media. Joining the CPMRA were five Miami University students, pictured below with Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine.
