FRA ACADEMY CRA 101 COURSE REGISTRATION
The Redevelopment Academy is starting back up and offering the core class "CRA 101" during the 2021 Annual Conference in Fort Myers!

This course covers all things CRAs and topics include defining redevelopment and community redevelopment agencies, redevelopment plans, reporting requirements, rules of engagement, reviewing FS, learning leadership tools, best practices and more.

The course will be held on October 26, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. This is a required course for the Academy and its graduates.

Onsite registration will not be available for this class. You must register prior to the conference so we have time to provide students with study materials.

If you have ever registered for an event with another association using the Florida League of Cities’ payment connection you should already have these login credentials.
