Designed for UF employees, our Leadership Development programs will help maximize the leadership qualities you already possess while allowing you to cultivate new strengths through education and training—all within a framework designed with the goals of the University of Florida in mind.
There are two programs available, with participation decided via a competitive application process. Applications will be considered by a selection committee, with up to 25 participants being selected for Next Level Leadership and up to 15 participants for the UF Academy.
Next Level Leadership
Next Level Leadership is a program designed for UF assistant directors and above to explore and develop skills to enable them to contribute at high levels in the organization for many years to come. A unique offering, the program will send 20-25 members through 4 quarterly events, each 2 to 3 days in length, which will include seminars, assessments, and access to the key leaders in the organization. Also appropriate for those making the “academic” to “administrator” transition. There is a fee for this program.
The UF Academy
The UF Academy is a program created for emerging leaders at our university. Designed for exempt employees up to and including the assistant director level as well as interested faculty, the UF Academy prepares employees for higher-level responsibilities at the University of Florida. To participate, an employee must be an exempt employee with at least two years of supervisory or decision-making up to and including assistant director level. Employees at the assistant director level may apply to participate with fewer than two years at the university. Based on the successful Finance and Administration Academy. There is no fee for this program.
