Nomination Process

The Leadership Academy is a 9-month experience that involves a series of monthly development sessions that address key leadership topics and specific focus groups. SHSU members of the program are selected through a nomination process - the remaining members are chosen their corresponding agencies through their own internal processes. In total, 20 - 25 emerging leaders from Sam Houston State University, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the Windham School District, and the community will participate in the program. Applicants must be full-time employees, have at least one (1) year of experience, and be endorsed by supervision through the proper chain of command.
