As the ISI University (ISIU) continues to evolve to better prepare YOU, our industry professionals and next generation of leadership, there will be some notable changes and additions to the program. A third module of nine classes will be added to the Certified Skating Director (CSD) curriculum, which along with the current CSD Parts 1 and 2, will make this a full 27-class track, carrying the full CSD distinction, comparable to the Certified Arena Manager (CAM), Certified Arena Operator (CAO) and Certified Arena Programmer (CAP).

CSD Part 3 debuts at the 2018 ISI conference. Individual coaches are strongly encouraged to participate in the CSD offerings, as much of the material has been designed for their benefit. As always, the three modules can be completed in any order and all ISI University courses can be used as PSA continuing education credits (CEUs).
