IIMC Board approved proactive changes to IIMC’s Education Guidelines and Eliminated the CMC Recertification program.
The Updated 2010 Education Guidelines
These changes begin January 1, 2010. The IIMC Education department will no longer be accepting applications effective immediately.
The decision was made to support those growing numbers of members who have opted out of Recertification in lieu for the more prestigious Master Municipal Clerk (MMC) program, and to further support our Clerks who are contented remaining Certified Municipal Clerks (CMC).
For those who hold a CMC designation
The only thing needed to maintain this designation is current IIMC membership. Once a CMC designation is reached, the CMC will keep that title for the duration of their membership with IIMC. There is no need to recertify. For those who have a CMC certificate with an expiration date, please complete the Request for CMC Replacement form to obtain a certificate without an expiration date.

For further information, or if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact CMC Verification Specialist, Marilyn Sanzo at marilyn@iimc.com.
For those who have been working towards CMC Recertification
There were some proactive changes made to the MMC program that went into effect on January 1, 2010, that may be of interest. More information
Please take note that Advanced Education work that would have been applicable towards Recertification can be applied to the MMC program. Additionally, if you have already completed Recertification, please note that each completed Recertification can earn 20 points of Advanced Education towards the MMC program, if so desired. Keep in mind that there is no time limit to complete the MMC Designation. You may simply gather your points as you earn them, and submit them once or twice yearly.
If you are interested in the MMC program, please submit the Admission Application form and mail it to IIMC. The Application for Admission form is located on our website at http://www.iimc.com/Education/Certification/MMC.shtml .
For MMC questions or concerns, please feel free to contact MMC Verification Specialist, Emily Maggard at Emily@iimc.com.
Please note that in order to recognize an IIMC designation, the candidate
must be an active member of IIMC.
