INFORMATION MTGS: Principal Leadership Institute Prepares Tomorrow's Leaders
UCLA's Principal Leadership Institute program is holding information sessions in the next two months for educators interested in becoming social justice leaders in Los Angeles schools.
The Principal Leadership Institute (PLI) recruits, trains and supports a diverse group of individuals committed to the principles of academic excellence, equity and integrity as a way to maximize achievement and opportunity for students in urban schools.
The rigorous 15-month program is aligned to the California Professional Standards for Educational Leaders. It offers a master's degree in education and a Tier-1 administrative credential. The next cohort will begin summer 2011.
The program is designed to attract outstanding educators who have administrative interests and recognized potential. We encourage applicants with:
- Five or more years experience as a classroom teacher, minimum three years

- A commitment to Los Angeles youth and communities
