APPLICATION PROCESS
SUBMIT DURING THE OPEN APPLICATION PERIOD (Preparing your application)
Our application process is designed to be easy and promotes reflection. The purpose is to get to know a bit more about you. Try to be as specific as possible instead of vague generalizations. Establish a clear connection between the work you do and your goals.
INCLUSIVE REVIEW PROCESS (Applications Review)
A group of coalition long-standing leaders and staff will closely read every application to assess things like growth opportunity and potential impact. We will contact all applicants with more information about the results of the review process.
SELECTIVE INTERVIEWS (Notification sent to all applicants on their application status)
Our resources are limited so we want to ensure that those selected for interviews have a chance to learn more about the program and assess if it is a good fit for their goals. If you’re chosen as a finalist, you’ll interview with some members of the review committee and with the program coordinator. For those applicants who were not selected, we will provide feedback on the application and information on additional opportunities.
CELEBRATE AND BEGIN YOUR FELLOW JOURNEY (Selection process ends)
If you’re selected for the program, your journey will kick off with onboarding and guidance from us every step of the way. We will contact you with more information regarding our mini-retreat in August and some suggestions on how to be prepared to start the program in September.
