Cahn Fellows Program

Cahn Fellows Program

Since 2016, the Cahn Fellows Programs has provided a 15-month national leadership development opportunity with a curated curriculum delivered by faculty at Teachers College, Columbia University. Fellows design and implement leadership projects in their schools with guidance from professors and practitioners. Each Fellow chooses an “ally”—another educator in their school whom they cultivate for leadership—to participate alongside them. Fellows and allies participate in sessions around personal leadership and stakeholder engagement. At the end of the Fellowship, Fellows present their school-based projects at the Cahn Fellows Annual Leadership Conference. The SY21-22 cohort of fellows will continue meeting until October 2022, and we will welcome a new cohort of Cahn Fellows for SY22-23.
