The Justice Court Clerk Certification Program allows experienced justice court clerks to demonstrate their knowledge of statutes, procedures, and ethical guidelines applicable to Texas justice courts. Justice court clerks who pass an examination receive certification as a Certified Clerk or a Master Certified Clerk. The Texas Justice Court Training Center creates and administers all exams.

TMCA's Strategic Plan serves as a guide for the Association's executive board to develop the annual budget and provide a succinct method of articulating to staff the policy direction for TMCA and the Texas Municipal Clerks Certification Program. This Strategic Plan also communicates to TMCA members and TMCCP enrollees and graduates the TMCA board’s commitment to communication, collaboration, and cooperation among all TMCA members and partners. Finally, this Strategic Plan provides a road map that will encourage all Texas municipal clerks to join an outstanding organization where education, certification, and networking result in better local government across the great State of Texas.
