Look for timely workshops, new services, and innovative opportunities
during the 2008-2009 school year. ULA blends valuable practitioner
knowledge and experience with the traditional academic excellence of the
College of Education and Human Development at the University of
Minnesota.
"ULA continues to provide optimum professional
development opportunities. This is a great program - very worth while,
very well-paced, very energizing, and readily applicable to what we’re
doing as educators."
- Richard Skinner
principal, Mounds View Public Schools
"ULA offers opportunities to impact each
participant's will, skill, knowledge, and capacity relevant to equity
leadership. In addition, each interaction creates a learning community
with other educators, which strengthens this purposeful and useful
pedagogical experience."
- Joyce Bell
assistant principal, Minneapolis Public Schools
"ULA's urban framework is important. We're a
first-ring suburb, and we're facing many of the same challenges as urban
schools. ULA brings together a nice blend of research and practice in an
on-going dialog, not a one-shot deal. We can learn from others."
- Ellen Delaney
associate principal, Spring Lake Park Schools
"ULA provides the highest quality professional
development for building administrators. Sessions and speakers on
current educational topics and issues enabled me to continue to develop
as a leader plus I was able to interact with other metropolitan
principals around out demanding work. I plan to continue my professional
development wit ULA as a retired principal."
- Gloria Kumagai
retired principal, Saint Paul Public Schools
