A 5-day seminar for current and aspiring community arts education executives

The National Guild of Community Schools of the Arts is pleased to announce the Community Arts Education Leadership Institute. The Institute provides an intensive, transformative experience through which current and aspiring leaders advance their skills by engaging with top leadership trainers and nationally-renowned practitioners. The program includes a five-day seminar at Drexel University, advanced assignments, pre- and post-360-degree feedback processes, and follow-up coaching.

Read the biographies of our distinguished faculty.

The Institute is ideally suited for those in executive positions or preparing to move into such positions. To optimize the learning experience, participation is limited to 25 individuals selected through a competitive application process.

The skills and knowledge gained will prepare you to:
* manage competing priorities within your organization;
* build an effective, collaborative organizational culture amongst board, staff, faculty, and other stakeholders;
* articulate organizational vision and implement effective strategies in pursuit of institutional goals; and
* be a successful leader.

Application forms and program details are available online. There is a $40 non-refundable application fee. The application deadline is Monday, March 15, 2010.

American Express has chosen to invest in the future of the field by subsidizing the cost of the Institute. The registration is therefore only $700 for personnel from Guild member organizations; $900 for those from non-member organizations. This covers training materials, pre- and post-360 degree feedback, all fees associated with the five day, four night institute at Drexel University, including room and board (two meals per day plus opening and closing receptions), and post-institute coaching.
