Summer 2025 IDA Academy

The IDA Academy provides regular training for Industrial Development Agency (IDA) staff and executives on a variety of issues to help operate an IDA office more efficiently and effectively. The Summer 2025 Academy will offer training sessions that include best practices, tools available to IDAs, and public policy that impacts IDA authority and operation. The NYSEDC will administer this program in partnership with IDA members, state agencies, and other industry experts.

In addition, the New York State Authorities Budget Office (ABO) will provide a Board Training Session for IDA board members. Completion of the session satisfies the requirement that directors must participate in state-approved training as required by Section 2824 of Public Authority Law regarding their legal, fiduciary, financial, and ethical responsibilities as board members of an authority.
