Institute Overview
Leading complex, continuous change during this remarkable and unprecedented time requires navigating everything that competes for your time, attention and limited resources. Going “back to normal” isn’t good enough. If you want to be engaged in using your voice to influence local, state, and federal policies that impact your work, now is the time to invest in yourself and join the 2023 Serving Leader Institute!
We know you want to be your best for your staff as well as the children and families you serve. It’s time to invest in yourself! The NAEYC Accreditation Project states,
“The wisest allocation of resources is to support the program administrator as the mechanism for impacting program quality. When quality improvement efforts focus on the administrator, program changes are all-encompassing – there is a trickledown effect – and improvements are more likely to be sustained.”
The Serving Leader Institute is a proven leadership program – a simple yet powerful framework providing you with leadership principles to motivate you and your team. You’ll have access to a library of practical tools and reflective journals to help you move from planning to action.
The fellowship brings you together with early childhood colleagues from a variety of roles and settings to collaborate, network and problem-solve together. Our certified facilitators provide you with focused coaching to promote your own professional growth and to strengthen your program.
The Fellowship combines world-class online training with collaborative learning at an affordable price. Upon completion, you will be honored with a certificate of recognition.
Ohio Approved credit is available upon request (32 hours).
