Aurora Chamber's Leadership Academy Registration Now Open

The Aurora Regional Chamber of Commerce is partnering with the Quad Country African American Chamber to put on the Aurora Chamber’s Leadership Academy. Registration for the program is now open until Monday, Feb. 25. Classes begin Friday, March 7. 
 
Established in 1979, the Leadership Academy has a rich history of providing confidence, knowledge, professionalism, and strong leadership skills that not only benefit the attendees, but also their employers. The goal is simple: To create a development opportunity for graduates to serve and enhance themselves, their employers and the community.

Over the past 35 years, more than 800 community leaders have participated in the program. Many have gone on to lead local businesses and organizations. Some have gone on to public office. All have left their mark on the community.

With the encouragement and support of the Dunham Fund, the Leadership Academy has completed its first phase of redevelopment. This year’s program focuses on the unique strengths of the Aurora community and encourages a diverse mix of participants to engage in our community’s success.
