What is appropriate compensation for IDA program staff?
There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question. A recent poll on the IDAnetwork listserv reported a New York IDA paying a program manager with a Masters Degree $42,000-45,000, an IDA coordinator with a Bachelors Degree $36,000-38,000, and an administrative assistant with a Bachelors or Associates degree $32,000-34,000. A Minnesota-based IDA program reported paying a program coordinator $21,500-$31,500.
