Annelise Shepherd Earns Master of Public Administration

I am pleased to announce CSSGA Communications Manager, Annelise Shepherd, earned a Master of Public Administration (MPA) with a concentration in Environmental Policy & Management from the School of Public Affairs at the University of Colorado Denver (CU Denver) in May of 2021. The concentration of Environmental Policy and Management is becoming extremely important within our industry. I personally want to congratulate Annelise for all her hard work, especially while holding a full time position with our trade associations!

CU Denver’s MPA program trains students for roles in public service leadership positions and careers with public and nonprofit agencies and organizations. The environmental policy and management concentration provides an understanding of how the natural environment is governed and affected by relationships between various entities, including: legislatures; administrative agencies; courts; federal, state, and local governments; government and the nonprofit and private sectors; and government and the public it has been established to serve.
