The UC Berkeley’s Executive Leadership Academy is a week-long program designed for individuals from all backgrounds, who are currently serving in administrative positions in higher education, and who are interested in preparing themselves for appointments to executive positions such as dean, vice president, provost, president, and chancellor. It offers a five-day intensive training experience and is guided by a select faculty team, comprised of over 25 senior-level higher education executives.

The program’s 2025 sessions are now open for application, and the campus will sponsor two emerging leaders for attendance. Please note this year’s sessions are in-person.

If you would like to be considered for this professional development opportunity, submit your current CV and a one-page narrative of your achievements, future career aspirations, the benefit of this opportunity to you and Fresno State. Submissions due by 5 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 19 to Randy Aoki at raoki@csufresno.edu.
