The program is available to anyone who works for a LeadingAge New York
member, in any member category, irrespective of clinical or managerial
experience. Associate and Affiliate members wi ll also be considered for
selection. It is far more important for potential LeadingAge New York IGNITE
Leadership Academy Fellows to demonstrate deep leadership potential within
their organizations than it is for them to carry specific job titles.
A $2,500 tuition payment *(non-refundable and non-transferable) is required
from each New York Fellow’s organization. In addition, lodging and travel
expenses are also paid by each Fellow’s organization (the costs incurred vary
depending on the locations of the site visits). Some meals are provided during
the sessions at no additional cost. Registration for the 2017 LeadingAge New
York Annual Conference and Exposition is included as part of the tuition.
Graduation will be held at the conference.
Fellows are required to attend all in-person sessions. Please note, access to
cell phones and other communication devices will be limited to break periods.
