Comments
Thank you for letting people know about the Cooperative Development Institute. We are thrilled to have more people learning and thinking about cooperatives all year round, but especially during Co-op Month in October, and during 2012, the U.N.-declared International Year of Cooperatives (see 2012.coop).
BUT we are NOT running a "Cooperative Connecticut" training program this year. We ran it in 2011, and may consider it in the future. We encourage everyone to browse www.cdi.coop for more information about co-ops and our services, or contact us at info@cdi.coop.
Thank you, and happy Co-op Month!
Noemi Giszpenc, Executive Director
