Scholarships Available! 2022 WHCA/WiCAL Leadership Academy

WHCA/WiCAL has designed this Leadership Academy for the unique needs and demands of health care professionals. Professionals at any stage of their career are invited to join this cohort-based model for an immersive experience unlike other training and development opportunities you may have experienced. You and your peers will engage in the exploration of fundamental leadership skills and behaviors, and then apply your learning in the workplace as “homework”. In addition to growing confidence, personal efficiency and effectiveness will emerge.

The need for strong leadership in long term care has never been greater. We have a choice: we can hope that someone else will step in to fill the void and solve the problems that hinder our performance – OR – we take responsibility for our own future and narrow the gap between our performance and personal potential. Leadership is a choice.

ACADEMY DATES: May 25, June 22, July 20, August 17, and September 14. Graduation/Recognition of Accomplishment held on October 20.

LOCATION: TBD – will have venues/locations shared before the end of April. Graduation/Recognition of Accomplishment will be held at the Osthoff in Elkhart Lake during the Awards Luncheon on October 20, 2022.

TUITION/ENROLLMENT: $1,500 for the entire program; this includes the curriculum & education, breakfast/lunch during each session, indefinite access the Leadership Academy archives, tools, and recourses, and $200 off Fall Convention Registration. Additionally, this program is approved for continuing education through NAB.
