Alumni Coaching & Professional Development
Continued Support for Continual Improvement
After completing the LLA Fellowship, school leaders can continue to amplify their work through individualized coaching with a Leadership Coach.
This fee-for-service program focuses on a particular initiative or sustained executive coaching. Together, the LED and the school leader construct a plan of work specifically designed to advance the culture of achievement at the leader’s school. School leaders set their targets for the year, and the program includes continual benchmarking and monitoring with multiple data points to assess progress.
Leadership Pathways
The school leader and Leadership Coach tailor the hours of coaching, its scope, and timing to the leader’s needs and goals. School leaders can choose from three pathways:
One-to-three coaching cycles lasting 4–8 weeks

Full days or half-days of support, offered monthly or quarterly

One or two coaching cycles lasting 4–8 weeks with periodic support and professional development session attendance
Concentrated on key components of instructional leadership, equity, and/or organizational management
