DESCRIPTION

The Emerging Leaders in Catholic Education program seeks to provide the next generation of Catholic school leaders in Chile with the skills, strategies, and networks to shape and lead transformational Catholic schools. The fellowship is organized around the University of Notre Dame's Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE) three pillars of Professional Development, Community, and Spiritual Growth.

In 2023 -- together with Alberto Hurtado University, the Vicariate for Education of the Archdiocese of Santiago, and the Jesuit Educational Network -- we will enroll a cohort of 24 educators from Chile, who will receive a series fo innovative courses on key topics on Catholic school leadership: school culture, instructional leadership, executive management, and integrated school leadership.

The program, consisting of 3 weekend seminars (Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon),  will run over the course of one year between May 2023 and April 2024. In addition, participants will meet monthly in a professional learning community.

Programación

Creemos que donde se encuentren líderes capacitados y efectivos, encontraremos escuelas y colegios católicos de alta calidad.

Los líderes desarrollan una visión personal de lo que es una cultura escolar católica intencional, y están equipados con las herramientas para implementar esta visión en su propio contexto escolar. Aprenden a articular las creencias y valores fundamentales de su escuela y alinear la cultura escolar con estos, convirtiéndolos en la realidad vivida por la comunidad escolar.

Después del Seminario 1, los líderes se reúnen mensualmente en grupos más pequeños, Comunidades Profesionales de Aprendizaje (CPA), con un entrenador ejecutivo. Los temas de estas participaciones mensuales se extraerán del contenido del Seminario 1.

Los líderes aprenden cómo construir una cultura de aprendizaje enraizada en los valores y creencias fundamentales de sus escuelas. Ellos aprenden a construir una cultura católica vibrante, sólida, e intencional que promueve el aprendizaje de todos los estudiantes, integra prácticas instruccionales centrales y optimiza la colaboración entre docentes y con los apoderados.

Después del Seminario 2, los participantes siguen reuniéndose en pequeñas Comunidades Profesionales de Aprendizaje (CPA), con un entrenador ejecutivo. Los temas de estas participaciones mensuales se extraerán del contenido del Seminario 2.

Los líderes escolares mejoran sus habilidades de gestión y liderazgo para apoyar la misión de la escuela de manera efectiva mientras mantienen las altas expectativas académicas y profesionales. Los líderes aprenden a gestionar el cambio y a establecer una cultura organizacional que apoye las relaciones positivas con sus estudiantes, apoderados, docentes, personal, y otros actores relevantes.

Al completar los tres seminarios, los líderes realizan un proyecto final para aplicar lo aprendido dentro de su contexto escolar.

Se enfoca en integrar la práctica de reflexión, el crecimiento espiritual, y la formación de comunidades a través de las tres dimensiones de liderazgo escolar: Cultura escolar, liderazgo instruccional, y gestión para la mission. Es un componente central del Programa de Líderes Emergentes.
