TAMIU's CPM Program is a seven-month professional development initiative comprising seven tracks, each with three sessions. Over the past three years, 49 participants from the City of Laredo and Webb County have completed the program. With this latest cohort, the total number of graduates rises to 62. An additional group of 15 participants from the City of Laredo is expected to graduate in June 2025.

The CPM Program aims to enhance leadership strengths and workplace effectiveness among public sector employees while providing agencies with opportunities to cultivate their leadership talent. Participants are required to complete 300 hours of structured learning activities, including a Capstone Project, which demonstrates their ability to apply core competencies in their professional roles.
The curriculum focuses on seven key competencies: Personal and Organizational Integrity, Work Management, Leadership, Self-Development, Systemic Integration, Public Service Focus, and Change Leadership.
