This internationally acclaimed 11-month program is purposeful, immersive, and transformational leadership learning for experienced senior leaders and aspiring principals.
The 2024-2025 program includes both face-to-face and online days, principal shadowing, 360° profile, a professional companion, as well as presentations from experts in their fields.
The rigorous design of the program, which includes pre-readings and assignments prior to each of the face-to face days, means that it is eligible for up to 50% credit with 16 universities around Australia for a Master of Educational Leadership and, in the case of WSU, an Educational MBA specifically designed for graduates of this program. Participants will also have the opportunity for school visits, shadowing an experienced school Principal and a corporate leader.
Key features of it include:
- The inner journey of leadership
- Theory to practice
- Academic rigour
- A cohort structure
- Multiple learning contexts
- Learning and support from experts in the field
If you are an experienced senior leader considering principalship or seeking to refine your senior executive role, The National Flagship Program commencing in December 2024 will open for application mid-year.
“We invite you to embark on this learning journey now, to continue your growth as a leader, and in doing so, inspire leadership in others.”
