Course Information
County budgets can be complicated but provide for county services for citizens. What goes into budget planning, and how is that impacted by providing services to other taxing entities?
This online course will inform Texas Tax Assessor-Collectors and their staff about the basic responsibilities of a budget officer, present the procedures for planning a budget and identifying the fees, expenses, and methods of collecting costs for providing services.
Upon completion of the course, participants will earn one (1) hour of continuing education credit from the V.G. Young Institute of County Government, a part of the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service. This course has been approved for CE credit by the Tax Assessor-Collectors Association of Texas.
A certificate of completion will be available after successfully completing the course material.
