The program objectives are met through day-long sessions combined with field
trips and class projects.  Class sessions develop participants' basic
awareness and key skills that are necessary to influence and initiate actions
that will prepare them to be future leaders in the public and/or private sector.

and address the following topics:

  • Leadership in a Changing Society
  • Government and Politics
  • Business and Economic Development
  • Justice System
  • Education
  • Quality of Life
  • Health and Human Services
  • Community Leadership

In addition, this program offers extensive networking opportunities with other
participants, alumni, Leadership Washington County board members and
many other community leaders.

Total tuition for the nine-month program is $725.00.  $575.00 is paid by the
employer/sponsor of the participant with the remaining $150.00 paid by the participant
as a commitment to the program.  Tuition is not payable until notification of
