Technical Assistance

CREC and partners are developing a variety of technical assistance efforts to help states and EDDs improve collaboration:

  • A policy academy to bring together a small group of states to learn from each other’s initiatives.
  • Deliver on-site and virtual technical assistance through conferences and peer exchanges.
  • Conduct outreach and technical assistance on incorporating international engagement into CEDS.

Policy Academy:

CREC is excited to announce that we are seeking applicants for a 2023 Policy Academy for state and regional economic development leaders who want to improve their strategic alignment and collaboration. Please note that given interest in the Academy, the deadline for applying to participate has been extended to February 17.
