Devin Groff, roadmaster for Lancaster Township, recently graduated from the PSATS Municipal Government Academy (PMGA), a leadership and municipal education program of the Pennsylvania State Association of Township Supervisors (PSATS). The 2019 class of PMGA graduates received diplomas and certificates of completion on April 15 during the township association's annual Educational Conference in Hershey.
According to PSATS executive director David Sanko, PSATS structured the academy to give participants practical information they can use in their positions. PMGA participants earn primary, secondary, and elective credits by attending classroom workshops and webinars and other PSATS educational opportunities, such as the annual Educational Conference, Human Resources and Labor Management Institute, Boot Camp for Township Officials, and Grassroots Advocacy Day.
In this year's graduating class, 10 individuals, including Groff, completed the diploma program by earning 60 credits from across four tracks - administration, planning and zoning, public safety, and public works. Six individuals completed the certificate program by earning 30 credits in the administration track.
