CSN Leadership Academy Applications Available

Recruitment for Fall 2021 and Spring 2022 is Under Way

Prospective class members are now being solicited for the CSN Leadership Academy Fall 2021 and Spring 2022 cohorts. The personal and professional enrichment program is open to all classified employees, administrative faculty, adjunct and full-time teaching faculty. It utilizes the well-regarded 7 Habits of Highly Effective People model of principle-based leadership, and concentrates on proactivity, strengthening time management, ethical decision-making, and communication competency.

Interested individuals are asked to complete the application found at this link: http://blog.csn.edu/newsroom/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/csn_leadership_application1-1.pdf. Currently, the program has been extended for up to 90 more participants (through the Spring 2022 semester) so it is advantageous to apply quickly. To date, more than 300 members of the CSN community have completed this personal enrichment and professional development program.

Unless otherwise indicated on the form or in the e-mail submission, the applicant will be considered for the Fall 2021 program cycle (which runs September through November). If a large volume of interest exists, all accepted prospects beyond the 30-person class limit will be placed on a Wait List. Those wait-listed will be informed of their acceptance into the Academy, and given the opportunity to participate in the next academic year–space permitting.

If at the time of application, the individual expresses a preference to be included in the Fall 2021 or Spring 2022 sessions, they will have priority placement. Next, openings will be filled through the Academy Wait List.

Participants will be selected based on:

  • Date of submission, to determine priority order
  • Category (Classified, administration or faculty)
  • Supervisor’s permission.

The intention, where possible, is to achieve a balance between the participants, based on their representational “category.” This helps to ensure robust dialogue and full inclusivity.

Dr. Zaragoza wishes this opportunity to be available to all who apply, and can be accommodated. Supervisors are, therefore, encouraged to offer their support to applicants.

Please contact program director Dr. Gillian Silver-Rodis, for more information.
