MCDI, Inc
The Massachusetts Career Development Institute, Incorporated (MCDI, Inc.) was founded as a public organization in 1970 known then as the Skills Center. In 1973, the Institute increased its size and scope and provided 300 graduates annually to local employers. In October 1979, after several moves due to its need to serve an expanding population and to house an increasing variety of available programs, the Institute moved to its present location at 140 Wilbraham Avenue in Springfield. MCDI, Inc. was established in 1979, for the purpose of providing skills training opportunities to those not served by the public entity. MCDI, Inc. has a well-trained and dedicated staff, and the capability to train 1,100 students each year, satisfying a wide variety of educational and training needs. The Institute has trained more than 31,000 Western Massachusetts residents and is committed to the needs of many thousands more over the next decade.
The Massachusetts Career Development Institute is committed to providing educational and vocational training opportunities and to offering supportive services that prepare individuals for personal growth and economic self-sufficiency.
