Foundation 3.0 builds the capacity of each participant to lead their organization through school-wide change to improve student success and performance. Each seminar is designed by a team of experienced school administrators and leaders that have demonstrated success in school improvement and organizational change. Each seminar is highly interactive and is applied directly to the real work of schooling. Foundation graduates achieve success as their leadership skills, confidence and schoolwide vision support a process of continuous improvement. All CSLA facilitators have extensive school leadership and administrative experience as well as experience with organizational change.
Graduates receive both regional and state level certificates of program completion.
Completion of Foundation 3.0 meets the elective requirement of the Tier II Professional Administrative Credential. Participants may complete missed seminars in other regional CSLA centers or in a third year at no additional cost. If so, the California School Leadership Academy is for you. The program supports the creation of 21st century schools that are founded upon powerful learning for all students. It combines the restructuring research and practice on the national level with the experience from CSLA's original Foundation program and School Leadership Team Seminars.
