County Officials Training Program
Kentucky’s training incentive program for elected county officials began with the enactment of House Bill 810 (KRS 64.5275), effective in January 1999. The program offers county judge-executives, fiscal court members, clerks, sheriffs and jailers an annual financial incentive to participate in continuing training relevant to their official duties.
Training is offered by a variety of agencies, professional associations, and private vendors. DLG enrolls officials in the program, pre-approves training events, records individual attendance for credit, and authorizes incentive payments. Participating officials may earn one incentive for each calendar year in office by providing documentation of 40 hours of approved training.
