Tiffany Lemaster, Asst. Economic Developer, Greater Chillicothe & Ross County Development, has been awarded the Ohio Certified Economic Developer (OhioCED) credential by the Ohio Economic Development Association. The presentation was made during the OEDA Annual Summit held this year in Toledo, Ohio. As a newly accredited OhioCED, Lemaster joins an elite group of ED Practitioners who have obtained the designation. 

The OhioCED is a “Best in Class” state accreditation earned through a combination of coursework and experience. The program is designed to demonstrate the depth and breadth of an individual’s knowledge and their ability to apply that knowledge to the benefit of their community or organization. The OhioCED designation also represents the economic development practitioner’s commitment to advancing the Ohio economy and elevating the economic development profession. 

In addition to supporting the work of Greater Chillicothe & Ross County Development, Lemaster currently serves as the Director of the Ross County Port Authority and as an affiliate member of the JEDISO Partnership.
