The Archives Leadership Institute is proud to announce its ALI15 cohort!
We received applications from a diverse group of archival professionals working in institutions throughout the U.S. and abroad. Each applicant was evaluated by three different Steering Committee members and scored based on their responses to a series of essay questions. Each of our ALI15 cohort members have shown exceptional leadership skills and potential, the ability to influence change within the archival field, a strong commitment to the archival profession, demonstrated professional organizational involvement and service, a collaborative and innovative spirit, and representation and/or support of diversity within the profession.
The Program Staff, Steering Committee, and Faculty are all very much looking forward to the 2015 Archives Leadership Institute.
