The Rocky Mountain Section of the American Water Works Association (RMSAWWA) is proud to partner with the University of Denver to deliver the Rocky Mountain Advanced Leadership Academy.
REGISTRATION OPTIONS: This course was first presented in 2025 using a three-day format. Based on participant feedback, this year has been extended to five days, with a new "Session 2" covering Application & Integration presented during the final two days. However, in the interest of training budget concerns, we are offering participants the choice to sign up for the FULL five-day course OR the original three-day format.
This five-day program develops the advanced knowledge, tools, and skills today’s leaders need to effectively lead teams and drive impact. The curriculum blends academic research with practical application to deliver a robust experience for professionals from diverse industries. Whether you’re looking to build upon previous leadership training or deepen your expertise through a new lens, the Rocky Mountain Advanced Leadership Academy will challenge and empower you to reach new heights in your leadership journey.
Graduates of the Rocky Mountain Leadership Academy (RMLA) are strongly encouraged to attend, as the program is designed to build on concepts introduced in the introductory program. While prior RMLA participation is preferred, the program is also open to professionals who are eager to strengthen and expand their advanced leadership skills.
The training will be pre-approved for operator credits in Colorado (3.75/2.25 TUs), Wyoming and New Mexico. Attendees of this class will receive approximately 7.5 hours of training credits per day (37.5 hours for 5 days/22.5 hours for 3 days).
