The Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) announced the completion of its first cohort of the Senior Leadership Academy, a transformative professional development program aimed at advancing careers within TCSG and its 22 colleges. Jeff Davis, VP for Technology and Institutional Support at Ogeechee Technical College (OTC), was among the graduates.
The Senior Leadership Academy is a yearlong program divided into eight two-day sessions. The first cohort consisting of 25 individuals, received 160 hours of content, including 18 hours of leadership training through the University of Georgia Carl Vinson Institute of Government.
“I’m truly grateful to have been selected to participate in the Senior Leadership Academy. The Carl Vinson Institute of Government professional development classes provided new perspectives on the evaluation and discovery of leadership opportunities in both myself and others,” said Davis. “Equally as beneficial were the frequent interactions with TCSG senior-staff. These sessions provided invaluable insight on how each individual college contributes to achieving the workforce development goals of TCSG.”
The Academy is designed to provide participants with a greater understanding of the operation and administrative functions of TCSG and its colleges such as strategic planning, data driven decision making, budgeting, student affairs, compliance, workforce development, and legal services, among others.
