Join us June 8-11 for the CDI Southeast Community Development Institute! The mission of the Community Development Institute is to empower people with the knowledge and skills necessary to proactively improve the physical and human resources of their communities, thereby increasing the quality of life for all citizens.
CDI can effectively and positively impact economic and social development by building the capacity of individuals and communities through practical, interactive and comprehensive training designed to meet the needs of economic and community development professionals working in a fast-paced environment.
Participants are exposed to a comprehensive, applied approach to community and economic development. In addition to showcasing knowledge from successful practitioners, CDI also offers valuable networking and peer‐to‐peer learning opportunities.
