What are the Nomination Criteria?

Candidates for the program are nominated by their agency director or another supervisor within the addiction treatment agency. It is critical that the agency agree to and allow for the time necessary to complete all requirements, and provide the protégé with opportunities to test new skills. Nominations are screened and selected for the program through an ATTC Selection Committee process. This allows for the selection of individuals who have potential for management and leadership positions, and capitalizes on their willingness to learn, grow and be a part of this dynamic process.

The Leadership Institute selects protégés for the program who:

  • Possess a personal or occupational commitment to the addiction treatment field

  • Are currently employed as a mid-to-senior level manager within an addiction service agency

  • Demonstrate current and potential leadership as indicated by professional, volunteer and other activities or through recommendations

  • Will make a commitment to participate fully in all training activities, including an assessment of personal leadership skills by superiors and subordinates

  • Can provide verification of employer’s commitment to protégé program participation and allowance for hours required to learn and apply the leadership model/training.

The time commitment involved includes:

  • Participation in a 5-day Immersion Training session

  • Classroom preparation and attendance

  • Self-study

  • Individual Leadership Development Plan (ILDP) creation and implementation (including Leadership Project completion)

  • Attendance in the graduation ceremony
