The 2021 Leadership Participants
About the Training:
The aim of state and district leadership of our component associations (FBA, FOA, and FVA) is to provide excellent stewarding of existing music programs, as well as the championing of better opportunities for aspiring musicians. This requires leaders to be efficient organizers of persons, resources, and projects, in addition to being able to plan paths to fulfilling the vision of a better tomorrow for music education in Florida.
This professional development opportunity will provide communication training, teambuilding, scenario-based problem-solving, and other skills identified by participants as a need to find success as a leader in Florida.
