Partner Universities / Education Team

Four exceptional partner universities deliver comprehensive, diverse and high-impact curriculum at program seminars. Fellows learn from first-rate educators, subject authorities and individuals from diverse professions and backgrounds. Monthly seminars rotate between these four universities.

The CALF Education Team consists of core faculty members from each of our partner universities, plus two other team members - alumni Manpreet Bains (43) and Sal Parra Jr. (46). The group discusses curriculum design and implementation, program evaluation, session scheduling, speaker needs, participant progress, program logistics, the application process and other program related matters.
