Graduation Requirements

We hear from our graduates that participation in Roaring Fork Leadership is one of the most rewarding experiences they have had. With that said, it requires a substantial commitment in time and energy from each class member. The program consists of 12 days, (usually the first Friday of each month) from 8 am - 5 pm, over a 9 month period, August – May. Please consider carefully the following requirements.

Inability to attend the August 26/27 Retreat, and October 6/7/8, 'Mastering Performance' sessions, will automatically eliminate a participant from being part of the program.
Participants who miss more than 2 sessions will be required to withdraw from the program. The integrity of the program requires that participants be present at all sessions to both learn the leadership skills and to develop personal relationships.
We encourage participants to present RFL learnings to their staff or another group of their choosing, 1x per month.
Complete all reading and written assignments in a timely manner.
Respect the confidential nature of the comments and discussion made during the program.
Participate fully in the class project component of the program - the practical "hands-on" application of the leadership principles learned in class.
Tuition payment made in full by September 1, 2010, or payment plan in place with the Executive Director.

Tuition Requirements

Tuition charged for the program is $2,500, however, if you were to secure this amount and level of training independently, it would cost upwards of $6.000. After final selections are made, a $200.00 non-refundable deposit is due by August 1. The remaining tuition of $2,300.00 is due by September 1. Monthly payment plans may be worked out. No refunds on tuition will be made after September 1. We have a limited amount of funding for scholarships available and scholarship applications are due by August 1. Tuition can be paid by the applicant, their employer, by scholarship assistance, or by a combination of these three sources.

Interviews

As part of the application process, an informal interview with our selection committee is required. Please mark your top 2 preferences for interviews. Interviews are 10 minutes long, and we make every attempt to accommodate your schedule. Interviews are usually held during the day.
