DESCRIPTION
The Court Management Program (CMP) consists
of two phases that address the training needs of mid-level
court managers. Phase I of the national program courses
are offered across the United States and are open to all.
Concluding Seminar certification is only available to those
who have successfully completed Phase I. Phase I and the Concluding
Seminar are also offered through state and local partnerships; however,
the tuition and logistics are contractual arrangements and may differ
from those of national program courses.
Phase I:
The five courses of CMP's Phase I develop participants' knowledge,
skills and abilities in caseflow management, information technology
management, court performance standards, fiscal management
and human resource management. These foundation courses are identical
to those of Phase I of the Court Executive Development Program. For
those who are interested in developing leadership skills and pursuing
a more intensive learning experience, the CMP courses can be used
to meet part of the requirements for entry into the Court Executive
Development Program
Concluding Seminar:
This weeklong course combines elements of leadership, management
techniques, and specific court issues in a program that provides
participants with the necessary knowledge, skills and abilities
to achieve their professional goals as court managers.
 |
Incorporating nationally recognized articles and
books on leadership, management and court issues, this course will
expand upon and integrate court management competencies identified
in the NACM Core Competencies. Participants will build upon the Phase
I foundational courses and explore the roles and purposes of courts;
deal with the concepts of judicial independence and interdependence;
become familiar with various leadership and management theories as
they apply to courts; take time to recognize and appreciate their
own conceptual and interpersonal skills, as well as those of others;
develop new teambuilding techniques; and, through interactive group
work, understand the importance of good communication as they move
to higher levels of critical thinking. The Concluding Seminar culminates
in a formal graduation ceremony and the awarding of CMP certificates.
