About ICCD's Leadership Issues Series:
This annual three-day program, formerly called our Administrative Leadership Program, is held at Cornell and addresses a new topic each year. Last year's Leadership Issues program, "A New Era of Accountability," was held in August.
Each program is highly interactive. Mid- and senior-level administrators interested in applying new research, acquiring skills for more effective leadership and sharing best practices with colleagues from around the country should attend. Institutional teams are encouraged to attend.
