Instruction will begin in November and culminate with a two-day professional leadership retreat and graduation in June 2021.  Participants will need to dedicate roughly one full day per month to the program. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our programming for the 2020 class was interrupted for a few months, but we have since resumed with virtual instruction and the class has had an opportunity to hear from truly top-notch presenters.  The 2020 class will graduate on October 6th.  Instruction for the 2021 class will also begin in a virtual format (Nov-Feb), followed by hybrid in-person/virtual instruction as public health orders allow (Mar-Apr), and conclude with safe, in-person instruction (May-June). Tuition for Leadership ABQ participants is $2,825.00 for Greater Albuquerque Chamber of Commerce Investors and $3,825.00 for non-Chamber investors.

Tuition covers the mandatory retreat, meals, materials, fees for speaker bookings, and the graduation ceremony. Occasional parking fees are not included. Limited scholarship funds are available for Chamber Investors. These funds are primarily reserved for small business owners and officers at nonprofit organizations. Accepted applicants who must withdraw may receive a refund 75% of their tuition on or before January 31, and 50% refund between February 1 and 20. No refunds will be issued after February 26th, 2021.
