Do you have an ‘emerging leader’ in your school who could benefit from a flexible, one-year training program based in a cohort model?

The Edvance Emerging Leaders Cohort is a small group cohort of staff working in Edvance affiliate Christian schools who have been identified as future leaders in their school communities. This cohort learning experience is focused on general leadership development for a variety of future leadership roles, not only for positions like head of school. The Emerging Leaders Cohort serves as an excellent first step for individuals in the Edvance network who are discerning God's call to leadership in the future.

The cohort is facilitated by Tim Bentum, Director of Leadership at Edvance, and consists of nine modules, primarily conducted online, throughout the school year. Participants will work on a ‘Leadership Roadmap’ to help them identify concrete next steps in their leadership development journey. They will also get connected to other mentors/coaches who can help them discern next steps in their growth as leaders. There is no cost for this program, but spaces are limited to maintain a small-group setting.

The 2024-25 Emerging Leaders Cohort has launched. Nominations for the 2025-26 cohort will open in Spring 2025. If you have any questions about the program, please contact Tim Bentum at tim.bentum@edvance.ca.
