Tuition for the SLS is $2,000.00 for this course and includes
7 sessions and a Networking Reception.
The Senior Leadership Series (SLS) requires a commitment to the 7 scheduled sessions, each focused on valuable topics. Participants will be expected to attend all sessions in order to maximize their benefit and make valuable contributions to the cohort.
The number of participants for this program is very limited and will be determined by a selection panel. Enrollment is not guaranteed, and preference may be given to participants from employers who create a local economic impact and add value to Stanislaus County or who have demonstrated support for economic development.
Participants exceeding one absence during the series will be dropped from the program. Consistent attendance is fundamental to the success of this Senior-Level cohort. Because space is extremely limited, prospective applicants should ensure their availability and withdraw their application if two absences are likely, in order to make space available for other executives.
