Ready to take the next step into a leadership role in your job, your community or SEANC? Now's your chance. SEANC’s Emerging Leaders Council has established a scholarship program to allow one SEANC member the opportunity to participate in Leadership North Carolina (LNC), a two-year training program where participants acquire the skills necessary to take the lead.

Each year, Leadership North Carolina selects a class of 50-60 current and emerging leaders from across the state through a competitive application process. Participants attend six two-day sessions between Oct. 2020 and May 2021 in various locations across the state where they learn about the challenges and opportunities facing North Carolina, with a focus on building networks and turning knowledge into action to benefit their communities and the state.

Participation in LNC requires a two-year commitment. Only active SEANC members working full time for the state are eligible to apply. Selection as the Emerging Leaders/LNC scholarship finalist does not constitute automatic admission into LNC. The individual selected will be required to submit an application to LNC and be accepted for admission into the program. Scholarship funds will cover the cost of tuition, meals, travel and lodging.
