Executive Development Program - NEW UPDATE: Will be posted in late September for courses beginning in October 2020
EDP will be available through CalLearns in October 2020! Due to social-distancing best practices, we are converting our 20-hour day instructor-led training to virtual delivery using the WebEx platform. Since this is a new delivery format, we will have limited seats and will open more spaces for training, so please be sure to check CalLearns regularly for availability in October 2020.
Serving the diverse and ever-changing needs of California citizens requires innovative thinking, team building, and incredible leadership. EDP develops innovative executives to deliver exceptional results to California. By the end of this program, you will be able to apply critical skills to lead divisions, build a resilient culture, lead change effectively, and develop the state's most valuable resource: our people.
EDP is designed to meet the required 20-hour training needs of newly appointed Chief Executive Administrators (CEA or equivalent). Please review the Leadership Training and Development Requirements policy for more information. CalHR is the only department authorized to deliver EDP as it relates to the new-to-role requirement in Government Code 19995.4 (e).
