Geary County approves staff travel to Exhibitor Live 2025 training
Summary
The commission voted to approve travel for county staff to attend the Exhibitor Live 2025 training in Texas. The motion passed by voice vote; details on travelers and exact expenses were discussed but not fully itemized in the meeting packet.
Geary County commissioners approved staff travel to Exhibitor Live 2025, a training conference in Texas, after hearing a presentation on the class offerings and the request from the human resources office.
The commission made a motion to authorize attendance and seconded it; members voted by voice and the motion carried. Commissioners said the training includes sessions on human-resources topics and artificial-intelligence applications that could help county staff and supervisors.
Human resources staff described the program as a single out-of-state training opportunity for the year with more than 60 classes available across several days. Commissioners asked staff to look at travel costs and to prioritize sessions that could help craft a local AI policy.
The commission recorded no itemized travel budget in the public discussion; commissioners and staff discussed options to drive or fly and to minimize cost by shared lodging and modest per-diem decisions. The motion on the record authorized the travel; staff were instructed to finalize travel arrangements and report back.
