In this advanced Academy, you will engage in a similar format as the Implementation Leadership Academy (10 weeks, virtual, multimodal learning, and collaborative), but the content is tailored to address organizational culture. 

While you will be able to complete the webinars and homework activities during times that work best for you, make sure to check out the schedule for the 90-minute live Zoom sessions and mark these dates/times on your calendar! Live sessions are interactive with a focus on discussion with your cohort members and the ACJI team.

Two weeks prior to the first live session, registered participants will receive an email from ACJI staff with the credentials to log in to the virtual platform. Please note that purchases are non-refundable, but if a situation arises where you are unable to attend on these dates, you can attend a future class. Please contact info@acji.org to arrange a transfer.
