Community Builders Institute

NU’s Community Builders Institute (CBI) teaches the basics of advanced economic development and land use planning. The program’s primary goal is to raise the capacity of land-use decision makers across Connecticut, and demonstrate the value of life-long professional education. It targets professional economic developers and planners, volunteer land-use commissioners, elected officials and real estate professionals, and fosters an understanding of each other’s duties, goals and views.

The program has numerous partners across Connecticut and New England.
