What is the Diploma in Independent School Leadership?

The CAIS Diploma in Independent School Leadership is designed to prepare participants for management roles in independent schools, particularly for Headships, by providing courses in aspects of independent schools rarely experienced by teachers. Modules are offered by CAIS at its annual summer Leadership Institute, and individual modules may be scheduled at other times during the year.  2010 CAIS LEADERSHIP INSTITUTES Spring - Feb 20-21 - Branksome Hall, Toronto, Ontario Summer - June 27 - July 2 - Appleby College, Oakville, Ontario
