Become a leader in population health and health care through the Great Plains Leadership Institute (GPLI) offered by UNMC’s College of Public Health.
This is the 12th year the yearlong institute has provided a place for established and emerging leaders in the region to build and enhance leadership skills. Applications are due May 13. Classes begin Sept. 9.
The institute is designed for emerging, mid-level and senior leaders from the Great Plains Region — Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, South Dakota — who play essential roles in keeping communities healthy.
Scholars come from governmental public health, insurance companies, community health centers, civic and elected positions, community-based organizations, the business community and more. Clinicians and faculty interested in investing in their leadership skill set are encouraged to apply.
