The Georgia Geospatial Association and the Northeast Georgia Regional Commission are hosting a workshop titled Unraveling the Mystery of Deeds.
 
Deeds are complicated legal documents but understanding them is essential in public administration. In this workshop, you will learn the most common types of deeds, how to read and decipher them, how to identify mistakes and red flags, and the process of filing deeds in the State of Georgia.
 
In this workshop, we will cover the following:

• A brief history of deeds in Georgia,
• How to read and interpret deeds,
• Different types of deeds, including warranty deeds, quit claim deeds, special interest deeds, and
• How to file deeds in the State of Georgia and the new FANS system. 

The workshop will be very hands-on. Participants can bring a tablet or laptop if they wish but it will not be required. Each participant will be given a physical workbook they will use throughout the class.

Who Should Attend?

County and City Clerks, Planners, Administrative staff, GIS staff, and Public Works staff that may deal with deeds in their day-to-day jobs and duties. Anyone who is interested in learning more about deeds! 

Cost

$50, which includes the class, lunch, and a workbook to take home with you
