Applications are now open for the 2026 Alpine Valleys Community Leadership Annual Program (AVCLP)
Conceived in 1998, this is our flagship offering. It has supported more than 500 graduates across North East Victoria and the Southern NSW Border region to strengthen how they lead – in their communities, workplaces and beyond.
From February to November, participants take part in place-based learning days, workshops, overnight retreats, a Melbourne study tour, and online skills sessions. They visit communities across the region, engage with local leaders and decision-makers, and work alongside a diverse cohort of peers.
The program supports people to:
• Build confidence and clarity
• Understand themselves and their leadership
• Strengthen skills in governance, communication, collaboration and advocacy
• Navigate complexity and lead with purpose
Participation can be supported by your employer, self-funded, or made possible through one of our generous scholarship placements. Applications will close in late September.
