Our Accelerators

Resiliency Studio Accelerators are Built to Catalyze Entities to Thrive!

Our accelerators are designed to assist members and their teams in building industry knowledge, deepening capacity and increasing outcome production.

Each accelerator is intricately built to leverage Urban Design Center’s decades of knowledge and implementation methodologies employed to facilitate client projects and programs.

Our accelerators consists of weekly live intensives partnered with bootcamp styled workspaces structured to drive the preparation, review and production of documents, proposals, reports and plans required for effective operational workflows.

Access to our intensives and workspaces are provided for an entire year so teams can accelerate progress or work at their own pace. Either way, we are here to help get the work done!
