Center for Public Management at the University of Oklahoma

The mission of the Center for Public Management is to transform lives through knowledge by providing highly-effective and customized solutions enabling our partner organizations to fulfill their mission. This mission is embodied in an organizational culture driven by integrity, commitment, resourcefulness, collaboration, and relationships. The Center for Public Management was born as part of the University of Oklahoma’s commitment to serve the community. When it was established in 1994, the emphasis was on helping Oklahoma state agencies meet their needs for federally-mandated training. The project began as a live, interactive, satellite-based training system designed to deliver training to Oklahoma counties statewide. CPM does business with public sector entities efficiently and affordably. CPM has the ability to draw upon the vast resources of the university’s staff and faculty to deliver cost-effective, customer-oriented solutions. The design of the university partnership is to bring the strengths and core service areas of CPM to enhance overall services and deliverables of our customers. CPM provides comprehensive solutions to support business functions, programs, and deliverables.
