Overview
The County Court Assistants Training Conference gives the county judge’s staff the opportunity to learn more about the management and operation of judicial and administrative procedures of the judge’s office. Our goal is for each person to leave this conference better equipped to assist the county judge in his or her judicial and administrative duties.
Who Should Attend
County judges’ secretaries, administrative assistants and court assistants are encouraged to attend.
Reimbursement
This program is partially funded by a Judicial & Court Personnel Training Fund Grant administered by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals and a Traffic Safety Grant administered by the Texas Department of Transportation. In accordance with the grant guidelines, county judge personnel (one person per county) may be reimbursed for attending the County Court Assistants Training Conference, up to $1,000 total per fiscal year.
All travel reservations made through third-party vendors (Hotels.com, Expedia.com, Booking.com, Airbnb.com, etc.) cannot be reimbursed. For more information on reimbursement, please call Ashley Royer at (800) 456-5974.
