ELP Schedule

Orientation Meeting:

Each selected Fellow will be invited to an orientation meeting in the fall, in November. At this time fellows will meet other participants and also receive program materials.
The ELP orientation for the incoming 2010 cohort is at UMass Boston, Healey Library, 11th floor from 5:30-7:30PM on November 19th.

Week-long Introductory Seminar:

In the January week, fellows meet several of the most prominent leaders from the region who relate their own leadership experiences and challenges. They also are introduced to the essential skills needed to become collaborative leaders.  These skills will be further developed throughout the program. In addition, they form teams that will work on important economic and civic issues for the next several months.

The 2010 introductory seminar is scheduled for January 25 through January 29.  The program day starts at 8:15 a.m. and ends at 5:00 p.m. 

Monthly Forums:

Monthly forums are held on the second Thursday* of every month, beginning in February.  The full schedule of 2010 forum dates is listed below.  At these forums, current leaders will again speak on leadership topics.  Each forum also includes additional skill development and provides opportunities for team meetings.

Elective Program Elements

  In addition to the core program, we offer several elective events.  These are not required to successfully complete the program, but they have proven valuable to past participants.  We also offer special sessions that are open to both the current Fellows and alumni.  There will also be assorted networking opportunities outside of the core program.
