TDA's Training Reviews

Hear from our trainees about how TDA's trainings have made a difference in their lives and careers!

HOME Fundamentals

"This training course was a great foundation to learning of the HOME program. I went to the training with little to no knowledge of the program, but the instructor ability to teach brought the program to an understanding that made sense. Being so new I know there are still items I need to learn, but I know where i can research material to find answers I need."

Fundamentals of Financial Management

"Taught me so much about audit financial statements and monitoring. It was an excellent course and very well put together."

CDBG Certification

"This course was extremely helpful, and will help me provide input to improve process within my organization."

Building A Monitoring Plan

"This course was wonderful! I especially like the handbook, template to plan out my monitor schedule!"
