Notice for all vendors: The WV Sheriffs’ Association Annual Conference and the WV Code mandated Annual Training by the Office of the West Virginia State Auditor is a collaboration of two events that work together to offer the best opportunities for training and networking with others from around West Virginia. With this collaboration the WVSA and the WVSAO respect parameters set by either organization. The training sessions prescribed by WV Code fall under the requirements and guidelines of the WV State Auditor’s Office and based upon past training sessions, the following policy has been put into effect for those sessions by the WVSAO, which we should clarify in advance. This is applicable to training sessions and is separate from business and other meetings held solely by the WVSA. Thank you for your cooperation.
