The six-month program will meet on the first Tuesday of each month. Classes are designed to give participants the opportunity to meet local decision-makers and have discussions on current issues.
Leadership Shelby County emphasizes the hand on experience component of the program, stating on its website that it makes it meaningful and interesting.
