MDI-NH Enrollment & Costs

DO NOT COMPLETE THE FULL REGISTRATION APPLICATION UNLESS YOU ARE FULLY SPONSORED AND READY TO MAKE A DEPOSIT PAYMENT OF AT LEAST $500 WITHIN THE NEXT 10 DAYS! WE ARE SORRY BUT THERE ARE NO SCHOLARSHIP FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR THE MDI.

Follow this link to complete the Full Registration Application.  You may register for one or two weeks of the Institute. Courses run from two to six days. You must register for only one Knowledge Track per week (e.g. Microfinance, ProPoor Enterprise Development, Community Economic Development). Since space is limited in each class, preference will be given to individuals registering for two weeks of the Institute on a first-come first-serve basis. Applicants will be notified no later than May 15, 2009 of class availability. If you will be travelling to the United States for the Institute please note the Health Records Requirements below and be sure you can submit the necessary documents before your arrival in New Hampshire. If you have any questions write to us at mdi@snhu.edu or call 603.644.3124.

Multiple participants from the same organization can benefit from our valuable training and take advantage of significant discounts when more than one staff member enrolls for the full three weeks of the Institute:

Optional Academic Credit and Fees:

Participants may take Institute classes for academic credit and earn up to 4 credits towards a 39 credit International Masters Degree in Community Economic Development (M.S. ICED). Students can earn three academic credits by one week of classes or six academic credits for two weeks of classes. 

Participants enrolling for credit towards the degree, are required to work with an academic advisor and design a practical project or research paper that benefits their actual field work. One assignment is due for each three academic credits. The participant will meet with the academic advisor to determine appropriate time frames for completion of each assignment. The final assignment must be completed within six months after the MDI-NH.
