NH Bureau of Education Celebrates Nearly 150 Graduates

Concord, NH  --  On June 2, 2017, the New Hampshire Bureau of Education and Training (BET) recognized the achievements of 25 graduates from the Bureau’s 2017 Certified Public Managers program at a ceremony held at the New  Hampshire Police Standards and Training facility in Concord. Graduates were joined by family and friends to celebrate their achievements.

Keynote speaker for the graduation ceremony was Victoria Sheehan, Commissioner of the NH Department of Transportation. Dennis Martino, BET Professor Emeritus and member of the National Certified Public Manager Consortium, presented the Askew Award recognizing an exemplary Certified Public Manager capstone project to Denise Morin of Strafford County for her project entitled “Creation and Implementation of an All Hazards Emergency Action Plan” for the civilian employees of Strafford County.

As with any graduation, the highlight for the students is the student speakers. Jason Henry, Carroll County House of Corrections, the CPM student speaker, solidified the connection between the students and the faculty with humorous antidotes and invitations for continued post-graduation networking.

Twenty-five (25) graduates completed the requirements of the NH Certified Public Manager (CPM) program, a competency-based program designed to develop the best practices in public management and leadership. Their work included more than 300 hours of classroom instruction over 2 years plus the completion of a capstone project. These students presented their projects at a Symposium in May. The Symposium is the culminating student experience in the NH CPM program and is designed to showcase their work in the areas of process improvement in their organizations. Their projects included innovations in training and workforce development and efficiency in state, municipal and county government.

The NH Bureau of Education and Training (BET) provides quality education, training and development services to meet the needs of New Hampshire’s public and nonprofit employees. Students in certificate programs and professional development courses learn best practices in management, supervision, and leadership. Graduates apply course principles and improve quality, productivity and effectiveness in government services for the benefit of the State’s citizens and customers.
