Next Leaders Fellowship (NLF) Design and Planning Session (open to all)

Launching in March 2022, the Next Leaders Fellowship (NLF) is building a framework to identify, develop, and advocate for information and technology professionals in Higher Education, with a special emphasis on those who identify as Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC). The Fellowship will recruit participants into a sponsored one-year experience participating as a cohort that will be mentored by accomplished senior leaders to support their professional growth.

If you are interested in learning more about this new fellowship program, as a potential candidate or mentor, or would like to help support the initiative as a partner, we encourage your participation and are eager for your input. We also welcome senior leaders in higher education who are committed to addressing existing equity and diversity issues in information and technology leadership.

The purpose of this design and planning session is to share the NLF vision, outline, and program plans as well as examples of the practices and content the participants will experience. The goal of the session is to seek input and feedback from across the broader EDUCAUSE community during these critical stages of the program’s development.
