2025 ASAHP LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

Application portal coming soon!

In 2005, the Association’s Board of Directors approved the creation of a leadership development program aimed at individuals in ASAHP member institutions.

Individuals who are accepted for the program also will be expected to register and participate in the Annual Conference and pay the full registration costs for that meeting.

The program will feature outstanding guest speakers who possess significant expertise and experience in various aspects of higher education administration. The period between May and October will be devoted to a combination of team projects. Participants will have the opportunity to pursue issues of interest while also developing personal leadership skills.

No fewer than 10 and not more than 16 participants will be selected. Normally, no more than one person will be chosen from any single member institution.

Eligible applicants: Priority will be given to department chairpersons/directors, associate/assistant deans, and new deans (appointed within the previous 24 months at the time of applying). Others would be considered based on space availability. Self-nominations are permissible.

There is a registration fee for each participant. Expenses for lodging, travel, conference registration, and meals will be the responsibility of either the individual participant or the institution.
