Being a leader is not just a title, it is a skill to be developed. Leadership is fundamental for those that want to succeed in academia or industry. Despite this, many of those in leadership positions never receive any training on how to effectively lead. This 30-hour certification developed by the McCall MacBain Postdoctoral Fellows Teaching and Leadership Program in collaboration with the DeGroote School of Business was created to better prepare postdoctoral scholars for the ever-changing leadership landscape. From learning how to effectively communicate, to reflections on leadership influence and emotional intelligence, postdocs will reflect upon their individual leadership style and will develop the tools to help them become the transformational leaders of tomorrow.

For the first time, the McCall MacBain Postdoctoral Fellows Teaching and Leadership Program at McMaster University is offering a FREE intensive one week offering of the Postdoctoral Scholars Leadership Certification. This program is open to all Canadian postdocs or postdoctoral fellows working in Canada.

  • Dates: Monday, July 15 - Friday, July 19, 2024

  • Format: Online (limited seats available) or in-person at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario

The application deadline is 8:59 PM Pacific Time on Sunday, June 16. Online interviews will be conducted between Monday, June 17 - Friday, June 21.
