A training solution to build a high-performance culture with leaders people love to follow.

Build a leadership force for good.

For credit unions investing in talent growth, the Certificate in Applied Leadership from eLeadership Academy is the only easy-to-administer, online training solution that blends the latest in leadership and neuroscience insights with social learning to equip your leaders to foster an inclusive, high-performance culture for good.

While most leadership and coaching training tend to be theoretical, we provide practical models, coaching, and “micro-actions” so learners can practice and apply new insights right away. The programs are cohort-based, creating an opportunity to network and learn with other credit union leaders.

Most leaders are comfortable with the processes of managing and mentoring. But at the other end of the continuum is the least utilized and most effective approach for 21st-century leadership growth. The coach approach puts a focus on asking questions to facilitate problem-solving, rather than doing the problem solving through managing or mentoring. Sometimes it’s best to manage, but other times it’s ideal to coach. Participants learn how to tell the difference and are given tools and frameworks for each in order to hold others capable and accountable.

We don’t just train leaders.
We help you build them.

Courses can be taken in any order or as standalone learning experiences. To earn a Certificate in Applied Leadership, participants must complete one of each of the following:

eLEAD

8-Week Cohort-Based Program, 4 Hours per Week

Effective leaders have both a strong backbone and an open heart. They have the clarity and courage to handle tough situations, and the empathy and emotional agility to create a climate of inclusiveness and belonging. This course introduces foundational concepts, such as emotional intelligence, coaching, change agility and NeuroLeadership. Bite-sized content and weekly exercises create immediate opportunities to boost team engagement and resilience.

eLeaderHUB

Monthly Program, 2 Hours per Month

eLeaderHUB enables busy CU professionals to continually improve their leadership skills. Participants gain access to monthly live webinars, micro-training, worksheets, tools, self-assessments, and a community of like-minded professionals. Participants receive bite-sized insights with straightforward, practical advice on how to become the leader that others love to follow. The eLeaderHUB course also includes access to an annual Virtual Summit and semi-annual EVOLVE Workshops. 

eCOACH

8-Week Cohort-Based Program, 4 Hours per Week

Coaching fosters accountability, inspires action, and builds confidence in others by holding them capable. In eCOACH, leaders learn to shift from being a problem-solver to becoming a facilitator-of-problem-solving. The program includes models for coaching and leading difficult conversations. The second half of the program includes workplace and triad practice as well as 1:1 mentor coaching.  

eFOCUS

Self-Paced Courses, 4 Modules, 2 Hours Per Module

This series of self-paced courses helps leaders leverage the power of cognitive science to rewire the brain for increased performance and improved well-being. Participants complete these on-demand courses independently and finish with an action-plan for their own personal growth. To qualify for the Certificate in Applied Leadership, participants must complete one eFOCUS course. 

A learning platform
that gets results.

All eLeadership Academy programs follow a brain-centric coursework model to ensure that the learning sticks.
Theory is important, but without practice, it has little impact on day-to-day leadership effectiveness. Our programs are designed to support a 70/20/10 learning model where leaders practice what they’ve learned and build confidence with new leadership techniques.
