Archives Leadership Institute
The Archives Leadership Institute
Each June, the annual Archives Leadership Institute will be held at Luther College (ALI@Luther) and will feature a week-long, residential Leadership Intensive, held at the Baker Village complex at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. This immersion program will embrace a distraction-free, focused opportunity for emerging archival leaders to develop theories, skills, and knowledge through Faculty instructors and Steering Committee mentors.

Other elements of the ALI program include a practicum project for participants to connect leadership skills with practical application, the Practices Workshop held in conjunction with the Society of American Archivists' Annual Meeting, the ALI Salon network of online forums, and optional thematic group projects for ALI alumni and participants to collaboratively address global archival issues.
The National Historical Publications and Records Commission, the granting agency of the National Archives, supports projects that promote the preservation and use of America's documentary heritage and the continuing development of professional skills for archivists, records managers and historical editors. First funded in 2008, the Archives Leadership Institute seeks to bring to tomorrow's leaders the insights and understanding necessary for increasing public use and appreciation of archives.
