For 6 days, every June, on the campus of the Fountain Valley School of Colorado, k-12 teachers and administrators from across North America learn how to develop the leadership competencies of their students.

They are exposed to the latest research about brain science, social and emotional intelligence, and group dynamics; and they participate in extensive exercises designed to develop their awareness, personal reflection, and effective action in order to learn a pedagogy of leadership.

To date, more than 400 educators from over 36 different states and three foreign countries have attended. They are teachers, coaches, deans of students, division heads and heads of school.

Collaboration with the Graduate School of Education (GSE)

Since 2010 the gcLi has been collaborating with PennGSE. Graduates are awarded a Certificate of Completion of the Leadership Lab in conjunction with the GSE. For a modest additional fee, attendees may receive transcripted Continuing Education Units (CEUs) from the GSE.

Registration for the 2013 Lab opens 12 Sep, 2012. – VIEW SAMPLE SCHEDULE
