I spent a day last week with a group made up mostly of local economic developers from around the state. They are enrolled in the NC Certified Economic Developer Program offered by East Carolina University’s Economic Development Academy. The two-day course last week was about how to recruit companies to build new plants. I was there for Day One.
The year-long curriculum, offered in partnership with the NC Economic Development Association, includes seven courses and a capstone project. Some folks just take a course or two; the entire program looks pretty rigorous, but formal training is a good idea if you want to do this for a career. The course last week was on the road, taught in Sanford, at Central Carolina Community College.
