Developing Leaders
Click the photo aboveThe Faculty Development Institute program is dedicated to the development and expansion of Lions faculty. The curriculum focuses on techniques and concepts that will enhance the quality of training and overall effectiveness of Lions leadership development programs.
Qualified candidates are those Lions who have some experience as faculty members at Lions training events, have demonstrated basic instructional skills, and have a keen interest in further developing those skills. Lions with extensive experience as Lions faculty or as professional trainers are not recommended for this institute. Participation is limited to Lions from the Constitutional/geographical area noted in the schedule below.
Lions participating in this four-day course will be required to conduct a training event within 6 (six) months of the institute, in order to be considered a graduate of the FDI program.
Lions who meet the qualifications may apply to the Faculty Development Institute. Applications will be available at least four months prior to the institute. If you are interested in applying to the institute, please obtain a copy of the application from your Global Leadership Team District Coordinator or download the application for the institute you are eligible to attend from the following list of institutes.

Please note that according to new board policy, a non-refundable participation fee of US$95.00 (or the equivalent in local currency) will be required to offset these costs for all institutes. This fee will be due no less than four weeks prior to the institute start date. Please do not send funds until you receive a letter of acceptance to the institute.
