Management
Training
In Management Training, we provide
programs year-round to school board members, superintendents,
central office administrators, principals, teachers, school
psychologists and support staff. We work closely with the MISD
Superintendent and Board of Education to bring in high caliber
speakers for special events.
We cooperate with
other MISD departments, local districts, associations and other
ISDs to obtain speakers for training and in-service programs. We
also collaborate with various universities to offer graduate credit for our Management
Training programs. Those not interested in graduate credit may
elect to take State Board-Continuing Education Units (SB-CEUs) as
offered.

Management
Academy
Management Academy focuses on issues
continually highlighted in importance by the nation’s media
under the auspices that what education does not create, it must
solve. The professionals dedicated to researching these critical
issues have been engaged to prepare Michigan’s school personnel
to deal successfully with their solutions.
Students learn how to
build community consensus and support for school and curriculum
reform through effective communication. They find out how to
involve a variety of publics in school improvement and curriculum
reform, and they become involved in compelling and in-depth
discussions on the projected cultural blending of the Nation and
its implications for the educational system. They also study
conflict resolution, multiculturalism and empowerment strategies
for at-risk youths and understand psychological and sociological
characteristics of youth violence.

Leadership
Academy
The Leadership Academy series continues
the introduction of topics concerned with the enhancement of
leadership skills. The program provides a process learning
atmosphere where participants can achieve actual hands-on
experience in a week long learning environment.
Students learn how to
exercise the concepts of team building proponents by real
demonstrations and group involvement. They study ways to combat
media attacks against the school system and protect the
environment conducive to the education of children. Instructors
inform students about assistance programs to use in dealing with
at-risk students and will actively become involved with the
process of implementing the various programs.
