The University of Tennessee Center for Industrial Services (UT CIS) team is excited to share the Tennessee Certified Economic Developer (TCED) program schedule for 2023! The team is also introducing a new one-day elective course: Embracing Generational & Cultural Differences.
The TCED Program, administered by UT CIS, provides high-quality training, continuing education and professional development opportunities to Tennessee's economic and community development practitioners, community leaders and elected officials.
The TCED Program gives participants a broad-based knowledge of economic opportunities and trends, core components and tools required to compete in today’s global economy, with a focus on economic development in Tennessee.
