Leading into the Future with UNC System Advancement: The Mid-Level Leadership Institute

Overview

 The Mid-Level Leaders Institute is a year-long, cohort-based program for mid-level advancement professionals across the UNC System institutions. We kickoff in September in Raleigh to set a foundation for our time together.

From here we will have six 90-minute virtual sessions between October and April. The institute concludes with an in-person capstone in May 2027, more details to come.

Your virtual session topics will be announced soon! Calendar invitations and Zoom links will come directly from Yianna Kappas, Learning and Development Manager at Academic Impressions.

Virtual Sessions: October 2026 – April 2027. All times Eastern
