KLC offers many leadership development programs including The KLC Path. Thanks to the Leadership Transformation Grant offered by KLC, we were able to send 54 WSU faculty and staff to 85 training sessions on The KLC Path in 2024! That equates to more than $35,000 worth of impactful growth and development. Go to the Program Attendees page to see which of your colleagues attended in 2024 and what they’re saying about their experience.
