2023 CEO Leadership Academy
General Information
Professional development and support for California’s college leaders is a critical investment in the future of our institutions. The CEO Leadership Academy (CLA) is designed by California Community College CEOs for California Community College CEOs. All CEOs are welcome to attend the CEO Leadership Academy, but we strongly encourage CEOs in the first three years of their role to join us.
The Academy provides the opportunity for CEOs to focus on the unique challenges and opportunities confronted by leaders of California Community Colleges. In a small group setting, you will create a cohort through building relationships with colleagues that will prove beneficial for years to come.
