The CILL team was one of the MOST organized and passionate groups of people that I have ever taken a continuing education course from. I appreciated the team’s structure, organization, and passion for the subject matter. The content was both very accessible and clearly aligned with current evidence and best-practices in leadership. It is clear that so many hours and intentionality went into the development of every single element of our learning experience. Thank you!

Hear From Our Participants

"This was so very informative! As a new leader, I compared myself to leaders I’d been exposed to in the past and when I didn’t look like them, I self-identified as a 'bad' leader. This session has taught me that not every leader looks the same and that we all have different strengths. THANK YOU."
