2020 Minnesota Aspiring Superintendent Academy

Do you wish to explore professional practice as a Minnesota School Superintendent?

 

Minnesota Aspiring Superintendents’ Academy

A partnership among
The Minnesota Association of School Administrators (MASA)
The American Association of School Administrators (AASA) and
Sourcewell (formerly NJPA)

The Minnesota Aspiring Superintendents’ Academy provides a rich, collegial cohort opportunity for school leaders who wish to become Minnesota School Superintendents. The Academy focuses on developing a professional practice in the superintendency that is grounded on evidence-based knowledge, skills, and dispositions that contribute to successful capstone leadership. Sessions are taught by experienced, effective school leaders and each participant will be paired with a coach for guidance during the cohort and beyond.

 

Participation will be limited, and applications will be screened for the highest quality candidates. Those selected for participation in the program will be outstanding, high performing leaders whose next logical career step would be the superintendency. This program will support transition into the first position as superintendent and each participant will receive a certificate of completion.

 

Please note that this is NOT a licensure program.
