ClerkOn 2015 Municipal Clerks Survey Helps Build Endowment Fund To Support Clerks Education
RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA (PRWEB) September 24, 2015 -- iCompass Technologies, with the release of their third annual ClerkOn Municipal Clerks Survey, continues its partnership with the Municipal Clerks Education Foundation (MCEF) by donating to the iCompass Small Government Endowment Fund an additional dollar ($1) from every response received from the survey. By completing the survey, respondents will help raise additional funds for MCEF.
“The MCEF Board of Directors embraces the partnership with iCompass as the Foundation moves beyond the $2 million mark to fund municipal clerk education into the future,” said MCEF President Colleen Nicol.
The iCompass Small Government Endowment Fund contributes to much needed scholarships for clerks from small communities to attend training and education sessions to build and maintain proficiency in the services they provide for their communities.
“iCompass has benefited from the open nature and professionalism of the clerk community and is committed to giving back in multiple ways,” said iCompass CEO Paulin Laberge. “Providing ClerkOn as the online place for clerks to connect and share knowledge from coast to coast and continuing to build an MCEF endowment fund are natural choices because they help support the ongoing training and community discussion of clerks.”
ClerkOn is an open nationwide platform for Clerks to connect, share knowledge and learn from one another while having fun. Clerks across the nation are actively participating and connecting with peers in the largest, most engaging Clerks’ conversation of its kind!
iCompass launched its Endowment at the 2014 IIMC Conference in Milwaukee and the third annual ClerkOn Municipal Clerks Survey will be distributed to more than 25,000 Municipal Clerks September 24, 2015 with a focus on identifying key trends and challenges in the clerk profession.
