Drawing on the wisdom of its late founder and benefactor, David C. Lincoln, “Good ethics is good business, and ethics is its own reward” is a foundational pillar for the university’s curriculum, particularly through the transformative Claremont Core®.

The Claremont Core® is not an academic framework; it is a transformative journey into mindfulness, dialogue, collaboration, and change. Each domain is infused with ethical considerations that challenge students to lead with integrity and respect for diverse viewpoints.

You can find and take a professional development course that claims to help you solve some of the vexing issues you face in your community.

But if you did, here's what you'd miss:
- Learning from a team of experts and scholar-practitioner faculty who have deep experience in both teaching and implementing the concepts you need to address a myriad of common, complex community challenges.

- Gaining a 9-credit graduate certificate from an accredited institution, an achievement which can also be applied to an MPA at CLU.

- Acquiring not only the critical skills and knowledge you need, but a comprehensive framework for practicing them (and a nationwide network of leaders doing the same).

The Lincoln Vibrant Communities Fellows Program is in a league of its own. The Lincoln Institute of Land Policy and CLU generously underwrite it, but the price will rise after this cohort. If you've considered applying, now is the best time!
