Launched in 2021, the Connecticut Professionals’ Leadership Academy is a unique program that brings together professionals from a wide variety of industries and backgrounds from the following organizations:
Participants work to strengthen leadership skills, build relationships, cultivate talent, and create a collaborative community among several professionals for the next generation of business leaders.
This six-month program will encourage emerging leaders to develop and improve their professions, their professional association groups, their companies, and their personal career growth.
Tuition is $600 for all six sessions and includes 23 professional education credits.
Applications will be accepted until November 30, 2025.
We are looking for early to mid-career professionals who are members of the partnering organizations seeking leadership training to propel them to the next level of their career.
Individuals are selected for the program based on community and business involvement, leadership aspiration, and commitment to professional growth.
