Mentoring

Included in the components of the Educational Leadership program is the assignment of a mentor to each candidate upon entrance to the program. The mentors are veteran school administrators who have many years of experience as a principal, central office administrator, or superintendent. They provide aspiring educational leaders with support, encouragement, guidance, decision-making skills, "critical friends," and courageous leadership opportunities.

The Franklin Covey organization has long earned its accolades for helping all levels of organizations with its “Lead Myself, Lead My Team, Lead the Organization,” system of personal empowerment. Candidates will experience classes that help them develop in two essential areas. Character – one's ability for personal and interpersonal effectiveness and Capabilities – one's ability to achieve sustainable results.
