READY Local Governments provides training to help local government officials better identify, secure, manage and implement federally funded economic development projects to maximize positive outcomes.

This curriculum was created exclusively for the 2024 READY Local Governments cohort by an external contractor to guide course facilitation, act as a primary source of reference, and enable active participation through both independent and collaborative activities. While the intended audience was specific to local government entities, the content and information found within may be useful and relevant to all ARC applicant and grantee stakeholder groups.
