About Department Head Certification Training

NAKHE’s strategic plan clearly articulates an investment in “creating and sustaining leadership opportunities for members.” Many new department heads (DH) and other leaders have little to no training before stepping into their roles.  Similarly, there are few discipline specific comprehensive leader training programs designed for the unique challenges faced by kinesiology administrators. Therefore, as part of its Leadership Institute, NAKHE developed a year and a half training and support program for kinesiology administrators and those aspiring to assume the role of department head. The Department Head Certification Training includes the following:

  • Self-assessment and professional/leadership goal development
  • Face-to-face training (DHCT summer workshop)
  • Attendance at the Leadership Development Workshops (LDW) following the DHCT summer workshop
  • 12 month mentor/protégé relationship
  • Leadership project development and implementation
  • Project update presentation at the 2020 NAKHE Annual Conference
  • 360 degree feedback
  • Certificate of Completion awarded during the 2021 NAKHE Conference
  • Participation in a Panel Discussion during the Annual NAKHE Conferenc
