The LEAD Maryland Foundation is seeking applications for the next class of LEAD Fellows. The LEAD Fellowship Program works to increase the numbers and capacities of leaders serving agriculture, natural resources, and rural communities. Program participants will complete a series of multi-day seminars held throughout Maryland and Washington, D.C., along with a travel study and class project in 2019 and 2020 .
Program information, calendar, and link to the on-line application are available at: extension.umd.edu/lead-maryland.
All interested applicants are encouraged, before submitting an application, to coordinate and communicate with co-workers, supervisors, family members, or any others who may need to support the applicant. Fellows will need time away from other responsibilities to fully complete the fellowship, and need to pay a participation fee (tuition).
Completed applications and references are due October 1, 2018.
The LEAD Maryland Fellowship Program is a University of Maryland Extension program serving the entire state. The LEAD Maryland Foundation funds a large share of the program and governs many aspects of the fellowship management.
