Fellowships
- Aspen Institute Liberty Fellowship (South Carolina ONLY)
Liberty Fellows share a core value – transforming a mere hope of making South Carolina a stronger state to achieving that goal. The Liberty Fellowship brings a dynamic mix of South Carolina leaders together – those who represent the broadest spectrum of political, social and geographic realms – to collaborate around this shared value.
The key focus of the program is an intense two-year experience undertaken by 20 young leaders – Liberty Fellows. These Fellows are carefully selected from a pool of strong candidates nominated from all across the state. A new initiative, Liberty Forums, allows any South Carolinian with a passion for progress to collaborate on issues through these Forums.

- Aspen Institute NewSchools Fellowship
Each year, the Aspen Institute -NewSchools Entrepreneurial Leaders for Public Education program will select approximately 20 exceptional leaders from across the country. These Fellows will bring a diverse set of backgrounds and skills to the program, having exhibited leadership in the nonprofit, foundation, charter school, and traditional school district sectors, and will hail from a variety of urban and rural communities. The Fellowship will give these extraordinary leaders the opportunity to work together to further develop their own leadership capacity, and to think across traditional silos and sector boundaries in order to push their collective impact to even greater heights.

The Broad Superintendents Academy is a unique training program because of its comprehensive approach to developing successful district leaders.

The Broad Residency is a leadership development program that places participants into full-time high-level managerial positions in school districts, CMOs, and federal/state departments of education.

Residents are often tasked with leading major projects like opening new schools, leading budgeting processes, increasing operational efficiencies, improving human resources, or supporting the launch of major policy initiatives. In these roles they can have an immediate impact on the education of America’s students.
