"This workshop was very educational and it enabled a huge paradigm shift in my thinking and policy-making views for not only my city, but also the more global perspective. The professors were very engaging and had so much relevant information to share. The group discussions and networking made it an overall educational experience not to be missed."

"All local leaders should take advantage of this opportunity and participate in the USC Price Executive Education for Policy. It was both refreshing and educational to get back into the classroom and learn about different and important policy topics that face our cities today. The forum allowed me to rethink some things and possibly take back and implement in my city. Sign up today!"

"I truly enjoyed the experience and wanted to thank the API Caucus and SoCal Edison for sponsoring my attendance. Aside from the networking opportunity with other local elected - the program in itself was very informative and the professors/ program promised to continue acting as a resource for us."
