Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer virtual Courses?

In 2020, CLA will execute virtual trainings on each core-competency, one at a time (three (3) virtual sessions per module), which allows for continuity of topics and gives an opportunity to conduct a deep dive on each selected topic.

When will the class start/finish?

All CLA virtual sessions will begin at 11:00 AM ET and end at 12:30 PM ET.

Will we receive materials in advance of the training?

If the particular training requires that the participants receive training materials prior to the start of class, the materials will be emailed to the participants.  

What is the cost of the program? Can my organization receive a discount?

All trainings offered by the CLA are free. However, attendees should individually register themselves (with their unique email address) via the registration portal to secure their place in training.

WILL THE VIDEO AND PRESENTATION OF THE TRAINING BE AVAILABLE?

All CLA training sessions are recorded, and all CLDP presentations will be uploaded on the CLA website after each training pod ends. We encourage you to share the recordings and presentations with your fellow chamber leadership.  

WHAT IS CLA COFFEE CONNECTION? HOW CAN I JOIN?

The CLA Coffee Connection is an optional 30-minute networking event at the conclusion of the third training of each CLA training Pod. This networking event is designed for you to meet with other Chamber leaders and discuss what you learned during the program. The link for registration can be found here.

Will I receive a certification for completing the course?

Yes. You will receive a certificate from the Chamber Leadership Alliance for completing this course. A certification of completion will be presented to participants (via email) who have attended two (2) of three (3) trainings per core competency.

WILL TRAININGS BE CANCELLED IN THE EVENT OF TECHNICAL difficulty, ETC.?

Trainings are very rarely canceled. A CLA representative will notify attendees should the class be delayed or canceled.
