A Valuable Leadership Network

The Western Academic Leadership Forum (Forum) established the Western Academic Leadership Academy (Academy) to provide a unique professional development opportunity for talented individuals at member institutions interested in advancing to the chief academic leadership level. They also wanted to ensure that there would be a trained pool of individuals in the pipeline from which to draw candidates for temporary and permanent positions at member institutions, systems, and state agencies.

Academy alumni are encouraged to keep their titles and affiliations current by contacting Kay Hulstrom (khulstrom@wiche.edu) to make changes in their listing.
