CDI Positions You to Elevate Yourself:
A message from CDI President, Laura DeCarlo:
Over 20 years ago, CDI was born out of a necessity to fill a critical industry gap in the training and empowerment of resume writers, career coaches, and other career industry practitioners.
Year after year, we continue to do just that, helping members to grow and flourish (regardless of the market), to overcome their barriers, and to rise to great confidence, success, and skill.
We achieve this through the stable leadership of award-winning professionals who keep their pulse on the industry, are unafraid to pioneer and champion new opportunities, hold strong to high standards, and ensure that you’ll find the best training here first.
We care deeply about this industry, our members, and the job seekers they serve.
Today, more than ever, there is no room for mediocrity and we’re all called to strive for quality and excellence if we want to thrive.
Here are Just Some Ways Membership Can Help:
Deep-dive training and tools from industry’s leaders and award-winners.
