Continuing education for conservators

All public conservators are required to participate in continuing education and membership with the California Association of Public Administrators, Public Guardians, and Public Conservators (CAPAPGPC). This program offers regional and state meetings that address common issues with conservatorship, guardianship, and estate administration. Public conservator employees take engage in services such as classes, conference, and licensing exams to ensure that they are up to date with current laws and procedures. 

"California Probate Code Section 2923, which governs public guardians, states: On or before January 1, 2008, the public guardian shall comply with the continuing education requirements that are established by the California State Association of Public Administrators, Public Guardians, and Public Conservators. The public administrator shall comply with the continuing education requirements that are established by the California State Association of Public Administrators, Public Guardians, and Public Conservators.

The CAPAPGPC is a non-profit association representing the Public Administrators, Guardians and Conservators from each of California's 58 counties. The CAPAPGPC develops education and training programs that provide professional levels of competency for Public Administrators, Guardians and Conservators and certifies those who have successfully completed the education and training requirements. Initial certification requires attending 40 hours of courses approved by the association. The requirements for certification are completion of a course on ethics and a basic orientation course, approved by the association, applicable to the duties performed in an office of a public administrator, public guardian or public conservator. Within a two-year period following certification, recertification is required and may be obtained by taking 20 hours of approved courses"


The website offers many different resources for the public conservator. They post documents with valuable guides, job postings, and a schedule for the conferences. Each year a yearly conference is held somewhere in California. This annual conference occurs early in September. This conference addresses new changes in the law, reviews problems in practice, and other information.
