- ELONetwork: When your application is accepted, you will gain access to Quorum, learning events, as well as a wide variety of other member benefits.
- Orientation and Training: Within the first three months of membership, you will partake in an ELO orientation from a member of the ELO staff. You will also go through Quorum training and be placed in a Quorum for monthly meetings.
The ELO Experience
The highest-rated benefit of ELO membership, a Quorum fosters peer-to-peer sharing between 6-10 members in a trusted and confidential environment. Looking to draw from the expertise that only another education leader would have? Quorum offers a format where the complex intersections between your professional life, personal life and community engagement can all be addressed head-on, so that you can achieve fulfillment in all of your endeavors.

"Being part of a peer network made me feel like I found my tribe. I finally get to talk to people who truly understand my feelings - excitement, frustration, and challenges. Having an opportunity that allows me to learn from others and also share my experience in a trusted group is invaluable both personally and professionally."
