Alumnae Membership

WLA is more than just the program.

Participation in a cohort is just the start. The best way to support Women's Leadership Academy and continue your WLA journey is to become a WLA Alumnae Member. Stay connected with your cohort members and build your network with participants from other cohorts while getting exclusive discounts and tickets to select PACS & WLA events and continuing education programming. 

 

WLA Alumnae Membership is open to all WLA alumnae and WLA mentors.
