The Alabama Association of Assessing Officials (AAAO) offers pre-conference courses at their Summer conference.  Topics vary each year. These are tested courses.

This course will focus on the remedies used by tax collection officials in Alabama to collect unpaid business personal property and real property taxes. This course will examine the steps that tax collection officials must take when taxes become delinquent beginning with the demand notice and continuing through the sale of property by either a traditional Tax Sale or Tax Lien Sale for real property. An emphasis will be placed on the duties of the tax collection official related to Tax Lien Sale first rights of purchase, redemptions, and how to handle notices from investors regarding impending tax lien foreclosure actions. For delinquent personal property accounts, the course will cover remedies available for collecting delinquent personal property accounts, which will include both tax sale and non-tax sale remedies (business license holds, garnishments, real property attachment).
