Emerging Leaders Program

The 2010 Emerging Leaders Program will be held June 16-18.

The Emerging Leaders program, which completed its 12th year in June 2009, is a collaborative program with the Michigan Association of Secondary School Principals (MASSP) and the Michigan Elementary and Middle School Principals Association (MEMSPA). This three-day institute, staffed by College of Education faculty, successful practicing principals, and the president and executive director of MASSP and MEMSPA, provides potential school administrators an opportunity to develop leadership skills and an awareness of the knowledge and skills necessary to be a successful school principal.  This yearly event also provides significant information about school leadership, its status, needs, challenges, and best practices directly from the school leaders in the field. This kind of knowledge is instrumental in improving the leadership development work of the K-12 office.
