WHO IS LEAD FOR?
LEAD is for all teen-facing staff who are just starting out in NCSY (two years or less with the organization).
Besides the LEAD cohort, there are three new cohorts for 2023-24 year that expand our support and meet various levels of experience and roles.
Staff are sent an invite to sign up for the appropriate cohorts. You can also sign up below.
FOUR COHORTS TO MEET YOUR NEEDS
In addition to LEAD, for the 2023-24 year, NCSY, in partnership with the OU Human Resources Department, will have three additional cohorts beyond LEAD based on years in the organization and role that you currently have. Staff will be invited to the appropriate cohort, and details on how to join will be sent to you.
