Rio Hondo College is committed to supporting professional development that strengthens employees’ leadership abilities. Hence, the Rio Hondo College Leadership Academy works to develop classified, faculty and management employees to prepare for leadership roles at every level of the organization.

Participants are expected to make plans to attend every session in totality. Missing more than 1 full day may result in the need to withdraw from the academy for that year.

Current plans are to offer the Academy experience in a hybrid model, alternating between in person and cyber sessions, beginning with an in person orientation in August.

Previous applicants who were accepted to the postponed 2020-2021 cohort who would like to participate in 2022-2023, only need to complete the “Supervisor Acknowledgement” portion of the application.
