(Marcy, NY – Aug. 2014) Leadership Mohawk Valley is proud to announce its Class of 2015; as in past years, the class consists of participants from the business, government and nonprofit sectors in Herkimer and Oneida Counties.
This marks Leadership Mohawk Valley’s 25th year of helping to shape the Mohawk Valley’s future leaders by exposing them to all aspects of the region during the span of a program year, from August 2014 to May 2015.
The effort begins with a day and a half orientation/opening retreat in August. The class then meets one day a month to focus on a specific aspect of the community. Topics will include human services, health care/health & wellness, education & lifelong learning, economic development and other topics. The days give participants a hands-on look at key organizations, access to decision makers and issues facing that particular field.
