The Fall Workshop is a one-day event that includes presentations on regional flood-related topics. Traditionally, VFMA has hosted two Fall Workshops in October. However, beginning this year, VFMA will now host three Fall Workshops! VFMA is very excited to expand the Fall Workshop opportunity to the western part of the state.
VFMA submits each workshop for pre-approval with the Association of State Floodplain Managers (ASFPM) for Continuing Education Credits (CECs) for Certified Floodplain Managers. These workshops are typically approved for 4-5 CECs.
