About the Program
How Does CLP Work?
The Charter Oak Leadership Program consists of nine full-day sessions, the third Friday of each month: September through May. Classes are from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., followed by an optional happy hour.
Many of the most recognized and respected experts in the country – including authorities on current events, leadership and the political process – lead each session. CLP students are of extremely high caliber and each year’s class is limited to 45 students to foster collaborative, participatory learning and to maximize interaction among students and presenters.
