AN ALLY AND AN ADVOCATE FOR 30 YEARS

CSDC’s Founder and Executive Director, Eric Premack, helped write California's first charter laws in 1992 and founded CSDC shortly thereafter. CSDC has been active ever since, providing tireless support and advocacy to the California charter school sector.

WE PROVIDE ONGOING SUPPORT TO A MAJORITY OF CALIFORNIA CHARTERS.

Through CSDC Membership, we support a majority of California's charter schools with the tools and resources, individualized technical assistance, and high quality training opportunities they need.

WE TRAIN THE SECTOR’S LEADERS

In addition to being a critical voice, ally, and advocate at the Capitol, CSDC has defined high quality charter school leadership training for thirty years. CSDC is proud to offer an annual selection of training opportunities, including the CSDC Conference, Leadership Intensive (LI), Charter Business Officer (CBO) Training Program, HR Academy, and more.
