Seminar for New Deans

Enrich your leadership. Expand your network. Elevate your impact.
Don’t miss your chance to secure your spot at this year's New Deans Seminar, a four-day, in-person program designed exclusively for deans in their first years of service. This immersive experience will help you build the skills, strategies, and network you need to lead with confidence and purpose. Although this event is intended for new deans a limited number seats are reserved for associate deans with responsibility for faculty and curricular issues.
During the seminar, you will:
- Sharpen your leadership skills to navigate complex institutional challenges
- Apply proven strategies to strengthen operations and drive academic excellence
- Master the fundamentals of budgeting, fundraising, and personnel leadership
- Shape and align the academic portfolio to advance student success
- Champion the liberal arts and sciences through clear, persuasive messaging
Along the way, you’ll join a supportive community of peers; a network of fellow deans who will remain a trusted resource long after the seminar concludes.
