Usually, nominations are limited to one participant per business or agency. Completed forms should be returned by July 30, 2001. Inquiries will now be accepted for the fall of 2001. In addition to the two-day retreat, one Leadership Weirton session will be held each month through April 2002. Each class also has a graduation dinner at the end of the program.
Attendance is required for the retreat, at least five of the six sessions, and graduation.
The Board of Directors, a group of volunteers who have proven themselves to be knowledgeable, dedicated community leaders, determine policy for the Leadership Program. Each year a program committee, made up of the Leadership Board and other community leaders will establish the curriculum for the class based on current issues and events. Field trips and community research projects conducted by teams of Leadership participants may also be utilized. Again, this is only a brief overview of the Leadership Weirton Program.
