Flagler County Purchasing Manager Holly Durrance earned two professional certifications within a week of one another – first with a Professional Procurement Certification issued by the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing, and the second was to become a Certified Professional Public Buyer.
“With her achievements, she has joined a prestigious group of mid- to executive-level leaders who successfully demonstrated the competencies anchored in the nationally recognized public procurement framework,” said Finance Director John Brower. “These recognitions further her credibility and the sustained impact she has, and will continue to have, in the vitally important public procurement function.”
Durrance joins a group of about 250 professionals to be certified by the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing since it launched the program in 2019. Tests focused on the following: strategy, policy and legislation; planning and analysis; contract administration, sourcing and solicitation; and, leadership and business principles.
“I’m just so over the moon,” Durrance said. “This has really given me the confidence I needed to continue to grow myself.”
Durrance’s next professional goal is to become a Certified Public Procurement Officer.
“I have been working towards this since I joined the Purchasing Department in 2017,” Durrance said. “I am just so thankful to be here and that the family I have here sees my potential and allows me to build on it.”
