Large turnout at Guatemala City Institute

OC’s fifth 2008 Institute for Excellence in Christian Leadership Development was held May 5-9 in Guatemala City, Guatemala. The event was hosted by OC partner Central American Theological Seminary (CATS).

Thirty-three leaders of strategic training programs in the region attended the Institute, representing Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Mexico, Peru and Venezuela.

During the five-day Institute themed “Leadership Matters,” participants focused on topics designed to equip them to more effectively lead their schools. All presentations and materials were available in Spanish.

Institute participants commented that the curriculum was excellently planned, facilitators prepared diligently, presenters were knowledgeable, information was valuable, interaction was great and the learning environment was very good. One participant said completing a practical Ministry Action Plan to outline his leadership improvements significantly enhanced what he took away from the Institute.

The next Institute for Excellence will take place July 21-25 at Ghana Christian University (GCU) in Accra, Ghana.
