LEADERSHIP TRAINING INSTITUTE Information about the 24th Annual Leadership Training Institute to be held in January 2011 will be available soon! Nationally, over ten million students are involved in athletics. Students who participate in sports and other school activities become role models, for better or worse, in their communities. Therefore school activities provide an excellent opportunity to set positive standards for participants, their friends, families and fans. This is where the MIAA Leadership Training Institute comes into play. For over 20 years, the MIAA has been training Wellness Coordinators to enhance ATOD and sportsmanship programming in their schools. Member schools are invited to nominate candidates for the institute each year. Thirty individuals are selected for the five-day residential program. The MIAA covers the cost of training, educational materials, hotel and meals. The institue provides an annual opportunity for member schools to showcase their successes, learn from other schools' experiences, and expand their core of volunteer leaders. Participants
