This includes skill sets like motivating others, setting purposeful expectations, prioritization and time management, delegation, running successful meetings, and leveraging your personal brand.To graduate from the Accelerate Institute, participants must successfully complete 4 Institute Classes and 4 Communities of Practice. Accelerate Institute Classes The Accelerate Institute has four monthly classes in a cohort-style learning environment. Each class is broken up into three 90-minute learning modules with breaks in between. Communities of Practice One of the most enriching elements of a cohort-style learning environment is the opportunity to engage in peer coaching. Participants in the Accelerate Institute attend four Communities of Practice, a once-a-month 60-minute event that allows participants the opportunity to talk about how they are incorporating the material taught in the previous class and trouble-shoot in a constructive safe space about challenges they are facing. Upon graduation from the Institute, graduates are invited to continue attending future Communities of Practice to continue honing their skills.
