The Sector Skills Academy encourages and supports rising leaders
in the sectoral employment development field, through a collegial environment, peer exchange, skills acquisition and professional growth.
 

Calling all Marano Fellows!
Past and current fellows in the Sector Skills Academy are invited to join our LinkedIn group and pose questions or participate in discussions around topics of interest to leaders in the sector field.

2011-2012 Academy
The seventh class of the Sector Skills Academy was recently selected. For more information on the 2011-12 fellows click here.
One good way to get a sense of the Academy's value, is to hear from participants. Below, a past Academy member describes her experience.

The Academy provided me with excellent information and valuable networking opportunities that broadened my understanding of sector-based approaches across the country. Both information and tools provided by the Academy have influenced my subsequent work, and relationships formed during the academy have helped me connect to ongoing learning opportunities. I am truly pleased to have been a Marano Fellow!
