Workshops & Events
Training is central to the League’s mission, as the laws, regulations and issues facing city government officials change rapidly. And as vital as this education is, the networking that occurs naturally at these events is just as important. There’s nothing more reinvigorating than learning and talking with other people facing your same challenges.
Annual Conference & Exhibit
Our largest educational offering of the year, this three-day event draws hundreds of city officials from all corners of Iowa
Budget Workshops
The annual workshops, typically held November/December, provide a review of the important factors that affect city budgets while helping attendees understand the state requirements for completing and filing the budget. The Budget Workshops are designed for city administrators, city clerks, and finance officers, but are open to all city officials.
Small City Workshops
Each summer, the League hosts Small City Workshops across the state. The topics and information presented at these workshops are geared toward the specific needs of Iowa’s small cities, although anyone is welcome to attend.
Annual Golf Tourney
Join the Iowa League of Cities every June for the annual Iowa League of Cities Golf Tourney, a fundraiser for the Tim Shields Endowment Fund.
Upcoming League Webinars
The League offers a variety of webinars throughout the year to educate and to respond to our rapidly changing world.
