In 2015, the current curriculum was updated and expanded to provide innovative seminars, educational materials, and dynamic relationship cultivating initiatives to encourage lifelong learning. The program includes a January orientation session followed by five monthly sessions in various regions across the state. Participants graduate with the professional benefits of increased expertise in the areas of self-knowledge, effective team-building, delegation, conflict management, political savvy, and business acumen.
