Applications for Spring Cohort are due no later than Monday, April 3rd, 2023.
Hello! You are on this page because you have expressed interest in participating in the Spring 2023 IEP Leadership Cohort Program. Please read the following information, complete your application, and submit as soon as possible before April 3rd, 11:59 p.m. Pacific. We will announce the final Cohort Members on Thursday, April 6th, release the pre-work to participants on Monday, April 10th, and start our live virtual cohort together on Thursday, April 20th.
What is a Cohort?
As part of our 2023 Positive Energy Workplace Initiative™ and IEP Method® Programming this year, we will be hosting one 4-month IEP Leadership Cohort. This cohort will start in April and go through July, and will be an immersive group experience designed to deepen your IEP practice, leadership skills, self-care and relationship with yourself, and your impact.
Cohorts are limited to 10 participants per cohort and are led by the ACI Team through a combination of core training with Anese and the ACI Team, monthly cohort meetings, and 1:1 Coaching with Cohort Leaders and Coaches. This Spring 2023 IEP Leadership Cohort’s participants will be chosen based on application responses and also will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Please note the prerequisite: You must have attended a virtual IEP Fundamentals Session (8 hours) or the in-person IEP Leadership Workshop (2 days) to participate in a cohort.
While many of your IEP Programs for D-Ford are available for open enrollment, cohorts have limited space and are by application only. Please read this overview and follow the directions carefully to ensure an excellent fit for this work/experience. Thank you.
Cohort Intention
The intention of this cohort is to provide an immersive experience in the IEP work that enables both individual and group learning of IEP, group connection, facilitation of human dynamics and creating safe space, and private work to more intimately work through learning and application.
