AMCTO Designations
Our sector-leading professional accreditation program raises the bar of Ontario municipal excellence by advancing the profession and showcasing members' municipal expertise. AMCTO designations reflect members' commitment to the profession and aim to inspire those who are early-on in their municipal careers to continue to take part in lifelong learning and professional development.
The Certified Municipal Officer (CMO) is cemented as the leading management and leadership designation in the municipal sector. The Accredited Municipal Professional (AMP) provides a non-management designation, and the Accredited Ontario Municipal Clerk (AOMC) designation raises the calibre of the clerk's profession and recognizes its significance to municipal administration in Ontario. Our Competency Framework outlines the necessary requirements of each designation.
