Open Meetings Act training
Online Open Meetings Act training is a one-time requirement for senators and committee members. Registration and multi-factor authentication are required prior to beginning the training session. If unsure as to which position you should choose during registration, "OMA PB member" is likely to be the best option. Authentication choices are an email to the address used for registration, a text message to a mobile phone, or an app for a mobile phone.
On the training website, the training may be called "FOIA/OMA training," "OMA training," or "FOIA training." If there is a choice between FOIA or OMA training, please select OMA. It consists of approximately 100 slides and some questions. Please allow 60-90 minutes in a single session for completion.
