How to Enroll
Program RequirementsThe program’s interactive nature demands a high level of participation and requires that Fellows complete all projects, assignments and readings as well as attend all program-related meetings, site visits, sessions, and conference calls. In the event that a Fellow no longer meets the program’s eligibility criteria, including being employed by an aging services employer, his/her continued involvement in the Leadership VIP program is subject to review and should be brought to the attention of LeadingAge Indiana staff. EligibilityThe program is available to LeadingAge and IHPCO member communities irrespective of clinical or managerial experience. Leadership potential within one’s organization is far more important than a specific job title. We encourage the identification and application of staff that are emerging leaders within member communities. Non-members are also eligible to participate at a slightly increased rate. If a Fellow’s employment status changes or if he or she fails to meet any of the program’s eligibility criteria, continued participation in the Leadership VIP program is subject to review by LeadingAge Indiana.
