Leadership and quality in afterschool programs are inseparable; for programs to succeed and become sustainable, they need strong leadership at all levels. L.E.A.D. 1.0 is a four-part series that will provide an advanced level group of afterschool professionals with the tools to hone their strengths and develop new skills to assume greater leadership roles in the future. Specifically designed for experienced directors and site coordinators who are looking for that next level of growth and development. Each session will include a training session, a guest speaker, lunch and time to network.
L.E.A.D. 2.0 is designed for those who have completed LEAD 1.0 and who are interested in continuing to further develop their skills and collaborations with other like-minded leaders in the afterschool field. Participants will participate in 5 in-person meetings, and virtual coaching sessions with a designated Vermont Afterschool coach as needed. As part of this program, participants will create and implement a project that will improve the quality of their program and support their growing leadership skills. Each participant will present their project and working portfolio at the end of the course.
Both L.E.A.D. 1.0 and 2.0 run from November 5, 2024 through May 14, 2025.
