Classified Leadership Institute Scholarship
Each year the 4CS offers scholarships to attend the annual Classified Leadership Institute (CLI). The CLI is jointly sponsored by 4CS and CCLC, and was established to promote leadership and strengthen classified staff participation in shared governance. The award began in 1998 to assist campus administrators in recognizing classified employees who have positive leadership skills and/or exhibit strong leadership potential, and are actively pursuing leadership roles at their colleges.
The following list of recipients represent over $27,000 of CLI Scholarships that have been given out to enable Classified Staff, from across the state, to attend the CLI conference!
