What would be a cost-efficient way to survey citizens? Leave your math phobia behind and join a session on how statistics can help you do your job better. Hear practical examples in local government to understand how statistics can be used to create solutions to everyday decisions from Dr. Maureen Berner, associate professor and author. The Webinar, presented by the Florida Association of City Clerks (FACC), will be held August 26 from 2:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. EST. The Webinar is $50 for FACC members, $75 for nonmembers. Registration forms and online registration will be available August 2 at www.floridaclerks.org. Space is limited.
