Description
The American Dental Education Association (ADEA), through the generosity of Dr. Rick Workman and Angie Workman, offers scholarships for the Bell Leadership Institute Achievers Program. The initiative supports promising mid-career dental faculty as part of a leadership development trajectory aimed at preparing future dental school deans. It funds participation in a defined educational experience rather than a research study or separate project.
The Achievers Program is a three-day, in-person meeting held at The Carolina Inn on the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill campus. The scholarship is intended for faculty already serving in academic leadership roles who are pursuing a future deanship or another leadership position in higher education.
