Skyline College Classified Senate President, Linda Allen and Secretary Nancy Lam attended this year’s Classified Leadership Institute Capitalizing Shared Governance to Ensure Student Success.  This year’s conference, held in Sacramento at the Red Lion Woodlake Conference Center, focused on effective classified participation in the participatory governance process at both state and local levels.

The Institute promotes personal development and trains classified staff in professional leadership skills, leading to increased confidence and the ability to communicate effectively.  The event offered classified staff from around the state an opportunity to interact and network with their peers in formal sessions as well as in casual discussion groups.

The Classified Senate encourages all classified staff to attend this leadership training next year. You may apply for Classified Staff Development Funds if you wish to attend the Institute
