The Virginia Institute of Government is no longer administering the certification programs for both Treasurers and Commissioners of Revenue as of July 1, 2026. VIG will no longer maintain the records of these programs after that date. The Commissioners' certification program will be administered by Virginia Commonwealth University and a link will be available soon.  The Treasurers' program is now administered by James Madison University, available on its TAV Portal. 

The Certifications program administers certification and career development for Virginia Treasurers, Deputy Treasurers, and Commissioners of Revenue in conjunction with the appropriate statewide association. Housed in the Virginia Institute of Government, the Certification Program provides career development and certification opportunities for Treasurers and Commissioners in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Through this program, constitutional officers can gain the skills and knowledge to more effectively serve their constituency.

The Cooper Center launched a new portal in January 2024, for registrations and payment for certifications.  Instructions are available at the link below.
