The BRIDGES experience will feature captivating keynote speakers, dynamic sessions, and ample networking opportunities. The program structure spans four weekend sessions, scheduled from September 27 to November 23, 2024. Participants will have the opportunity to engage with experts, partake in peer discussions and case studies, exchange ideas, forge connections, and learn from one another. Program presenters hail from esteemed institutions in the region, complemented by consultants brought in to enhance specific areas of the curriculum.
The Class of 2024 will comprise forty prestigious participants. The application deadline is May 15, with a program fee of $2,500 covering instruction, educational materials, the leadership assessment tool, and meals during in-person sessions.
