The Institute for Educational Leadership at UNI

In response to recognized needs, the IEL (a Division of the College of Education), and UNI, is committed to bringing educators and community leaders together to analyze and dialogue fundamental issues related to pre-kindergarten through post-secondary education.

The IEL at UNI is unique because of its focus on capturing the thinking of the nation’s best practitioners who possess a knowledge base built on day-to-day experiences in a variety of school and non-school settings. The Institute strives to bring this knowledge base of practice into relationship with the knowledge base of the University resulting in stimulating interplay which addresses complex leadership and educational issues and results in fresh ideas and innovative perspectives.
