EVC TRAINING INSTITUTE.
EVC’s model has three components–the leadership academy, the leadership immersive, and the leadership accelerator. The leadership academy is a two-day training focused on leadership skills and branding. The leadership immersive is designed for those who have completed the leadership academy and are interested in building or strengthening specific skills in areas such as revenue generation, financial management, strategic communications, and impact evaluation. The leadership accelerator is the most intensive and longest component of the model and provides leaders who have completed both the academy and immersive to join a nine-month fellowship + coaching program to take their leadership and their organization’s impact to the next well. Throughout all of these components, EVC centers and provides healing and well-being offerings to leaders to support their physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
The EVC Training Institute offers leaders capacity building across six boot camps–breakthrough leadership; results-based accountability research; revenue generation; financial management; strategic communications; strategic planning and development; health and wellbeing–and, upon completion, an opportunity to apply to the EVC Accelerator, a nine-month fellowship + coaching program with a $50,000 unrestricted organization grant.
