The Regis University MDP Program meets the urgent need for a new generation of development practitioners. Achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals by 2030 will demand in
tegrated policy and practice with attention to the lived realities of communities around the world. To meet this challenge, we offer extraordinary development education for aspiring and current development practitioners. The Regis MDP is an innovative degree that prepares students to contribute to a sustainable future for our planet and for communities everywhere that seek a better future. Our program is integrated, collaborative, accessible, and affordable. Our classes use virtual-visual-conferencing to bring students from around the world together in a continual process of discovery for truly global solutions to development challenges. Our graduates demonstrate holistic development proficiency and skills, garnered from interdisciplinary coursework and field immersions. The Regis MDP is a member of the Global Association of MDP Programs, and meets the Association standard of twenty-nine core Development Practice competencies. Targeted technical and financial resources combine to make the quality education of the Regis MDP an attainable option for qualified people everywhere. State of the art video conferencing enables students to join the program from their place of development work; no one need relocate to Denver for full and inclusive participation in these applied graduate studies. Comprehensive financial assessments for our students facilitate financial accessibility. Every student is considered for financial support keyed to the context of their local economy. Once enrolled, students move through the program both as individuals and as members of Learning Communities which support both cross-disciplinary collaboration and cohesive work around sectoral, geographic, and organizational focus. Learning Communities instantiate a holistic development approach powered by the range of human perspective -- generational, gendered, cultural and disciplinary. By the same token, we especially welcome cohorts of students from a single organization. The Learning Community structure allows a staff team to expand and interrogate their established practice with new concepts and, from the perspective of their various roles, find new energy and approaches to their development work.
