Scholarships for NDC Affordable Housing Certification in Columbus

Mar 6, 2019 | News, Newsletter

Ohio CDC Association is partnering with Ohio Housing Finance Agency (OHFA) to bring the National Development Council (NDC) Housing Development Finance Training to Ohio.

NDC offers this nationally renowned training program that builds the development finance capacity for professionals working at every level and for every sector of the economic, housing and community development profession.

NDC’s courses are intense and rigorous, with as many classroom hours as an average college course, plus homework and, in certification courses, a final examination administered on the last day of each class.

Course instructors include community and economic development officials, former bankers, developers, entrepreneurs and government agency leaders.

Instructors are members of NDC’s team of development finance specialists who impart real-world knowledge in the classroom.
