Are you a current OCA leader?
Are you interested in becoming a leader?
Want to build a helpful leadership toolbox for your role?
Check out OCA’s latest NEW and FREE membership benefit – the Leadership Certificate Program - set to launch in January 2022! This brief, fun, and practical experience is designed for any graduate student, new professional, or seasoned professional, who is either a current or emerging leader within OCA. Offered primarily online (introduction and final sessions are live), participants register for a series (winter, spring, summer, fall) and then asynchronously watch six mini learning modules. Total time commitment for participants is approximately four hours. Modules are taught by past and present OCA leaders who bring their latest insight to some of the most significant aspects of being a leader in our association. Leaders will learn important information about OCA executive goals and plans and gain the important knowledge and skills for holding a leadership role in our state association. Learn how to strengthen the effectiveness of your division, chapter, or committee by applying best practices for membership growth, servant leadership, governance, finances, legislative advocacy, as well as understand the CE approval process. Participants will benefit from meeting and networking with other leaders and will receive mentorship and guidance for next steps. After completing all six modules participants receive a certificate of completion from OCA and will be recognized at the All Ohio Counselors Conference or the Annual Spring Conference. Participants will come away excited, confident, and empowered to help move our state association forward!
