Leadership skills have never been more needed in educational institutions. APPA’s Leadership Academy prepares educational facilities professionals to become effective leaders with the skills to create thriving cultures of trust and lifelong learning.
Available through both in-person and virtual programming, this interactive learning experience is based on proven leadership development solutions. Facilities professionals progress through four levels of instruction:
- Individual Effectiveness Skills (Level I)
- Interpersonal Effectiveness Skills (Level II)
- Managerial Effectiveness Skills (Level III)
- Organizational Effectiveness Skills (Level IV)
Attendees of the January 2024 Leadership Academy in New Orleans (below) described it as: “phenomenal … a great learning experience.” “It’s helping me be the leader that I’ve been called to be.”
