This Season of New Educational Beginnings is a Great Time to Start SIM's ELD Program!
SIM
This season of "back-to-school" and new educational beginnings is the perfect time to sign up your organization's newest leaders for SIM's 100% online Emerging Leader Development (ELD) program! Launch that new leader into a rewarding environment of continuing education about leadership — and at the same time earn money for your Chapter.
ELD benefits your company's newest leaders:
- The ELD is available only for SIM members ... anyone that works for you or for your organization can participate.
- It's designed for the entry-level leaders in your organization... a kind of "leadership 101" to familiarize them with the key skills required to be an effective leader.
- It's a 100% online program... it’s self-paced, not instructor-led and can be completed in a matter of months at the participant’s desired pace.
- And the first 250 participants can register for only $500... an introductory heavy discount from the regular registration price of $1.099. Take advantage of this price while it's available!
ELD benefits your chapter:
By registering your employees you'll help your Chapter earn money for philanthropy or other discretionary purposes. Your Chapter receives:
- $50 for each of the first five people registered for the ELD through your Chapter.
- $100 for each additional person (6 or more) registered.
