Program Highlights

Face-to-Face Experiential and Blended Learning

Throughout the sessions, participants will have the unique opportunity to learn directly from these experienced superintendents, gaining valuable insights into practical challenges and real-life issues facing school leaders.

  • AASA Curriculum Framework Customized for Indiana – The IASA curriculum, Leadership for the Twenty-Second Century, Learning and Cultures, and Student Impact, is adapted to meet the needs of Hoosier educators.
