Applications Open for EAGL 2014Source: StandPoint Inc.

Applications for the second year of the Executive Academy for Growth and Leadership (EAGL) are now being accepted. The one-year education program is developed for growers in the nursery and greenhouse production industry. It is the product of a multi-year design collaboration between program principals Kip Creel of StandPoint and Dr. Charlie Hall of Texas A&M University. At the end of the program, growers receive a continuing education Certificate in Applied Horticultural Business Management from Texas A&M University. EAGL is practical, not theoretical, and built with highly interactive adult learning principles in mind. Each class has a maximum size of 15 executives and meets four times a year (in person), supplemented with webinar, preparation coursework, and one-on-one sessions with the faculty. Direct competitors are not accepted in the program in the same year. For more information on EAGL or to submit an application, visit www.eaglpro.com.
