With a top notch curriculum and world class trainers we have the right formula for an experience that can give you the edge you need in dealing with complex challenges in your community and region. CDI is guaranteed to provide you with information, a new perspective and skills you can apply immediately. It also will provide you with an opportunity to bond with other professionals and draw from their knowledge and experience.

After completing three years, you can receive a Professional Community and Economic Development Certification. Why is a professional certification important? It provides a marketable professional credential when competing for positions in the community and economic development field. Endorsed by the Community Development Council Board of Trustees, it means you have achieved a nationally recognized standard of excellence in the profession through formal education and practical application.
