Fellowship

Our year-long, tuition-based program offers a series of two-day, monthly, industry and issue-oriented forums and experiences, which are based on the belief that knowledge is a key element and prime motivator of leadership. It is an intensive, fast-moving program, and described by our Fellows as an MBA in Delaware.


We do not teach Fellows how to lead, but rather, we provide access to leaders who will share their leadership characteristics from which our Fellows may choose to adopt, adapt, or reject.


Benefits of the program:

  • Hear from over 150 of Delaware's business, non-profit, and government leaders and innovators
  • Leverage a network of over 380 alumni, board of directors, and their resources
  • Build diverse, authentic relationships from a variety of sectors and industries
  • Alignment with an award-winning prestigious leadership training organization
  • Board recruitment opportunities
  • Earn up to 6 credits towards a certificate or graduate business degree program at Wilmington University
