Accelerated Leadership Academy

The USG Accelerated Leadership Academy is a legacy program that was facilitated for ELI alumni scholars. The purpose of the USG Accelerated Leadership Academy (ALA) was to build a leadership culture by providing the next level of structured and continuous executive-level leadership development and certification that extend the initial Executive Leadership Institute experiences. 

The ALA prepared ELI alumni scholars to excel in executive roles and align their long term professional goals with organizational opportunities. Additionally, the ALA rigorously identified and prepared a select pool of executive talent in advance of vacancies for critical positions within the USG.

Currently, there are no offerings of ALA scheduled.
