ACC Leadership Forum

The ACC Leadership Forum helps Chairs, Chairs-Elect and Incoming Chairs-Elect of Standing and Major Operating Committees, Section Councils, Board of Governors, Assembly of International Governors, and CV Team Chapter Representatives get started in their new roles.

Participants take part in both in-person and online learning over a four-year cycle that begins in their incoming chair-elect/representative-elect year. Member leaders learn about ACC's strategic direction, and leadership structure and operations, while building community and developing their leadership skills.
