Advanced CDBG Course
Course Overview
Advanced CDBG (2 Days)
The first two days focus on Advanced CDBG concepts & management. Senior staff, new managers and experienced managers wishing to stimulate new ideas can benefit from the course. The agenda will include information and discussion on effective program planning, equitable allocation systems, program implementation challenges, leveraging resources and problem solving. The course will be reinforced through in-class exercises. Course participants will receive a training manual, including resource material. If you have specific issues you'd like to discuss, bring them with you. It is highly recommended that registrants have at least 3 years of CDBG experience before taking this course.
