MVAEA Leadership
Academy
Lately Leadership Academies have been a part of the annual
conference. For 2011, the Conference
is expected to be similar to a prolonged Leadership Academy event.
All MVAEA members are encouraged to attend
Watch Happenings in the Valley for more information.
The MVAEA Leadership Academy is a membership service to the state
associations. The academy was started in order to provide leadership training
to board members and potential board members from across the region. The
Leadership Academy is open to MVAEA members for a nominal fee. Room and board
is the responsibility of each participant.
As noted above, lately the academy has been part of the annual
conference.
Past Leadership Academies – no separate
information for 2009 or 2010.
