Alumni Network
The LEAD Alumni Network (LAN) is a membership organization comprised of graduates from the LEAD Higher and LEAD Peninsula programs, to include graduates of the Leadership Institute of the Virginia Peninsula.
How LAN Supports the Chamber: The LEAD Alumni Network contributes by expanding the Chamber’s reach, representing its initiatives in the community, and engaging alumni leadership in support of Chamber priorities.
Joining the Alumni Network
All LEAD Higher, LEAD Peninsula, and Leadership Institute of the Virginia Peninsula graduates interested in joining the LEAD Alumni Network (as a general member, serving on a committee, or holding a leadership role) must register and pay their annual dues.
Annual Dues: Annual LAN dues are currently set at $60. These can be paid online at the time of registration, over the phone, or check by mail. LAN Membership runs from July to June.
Benefits of Joining LAN: One of the primary benefits of joining the LEAD Alumni Network is the networking opportunities. Other benefits include: quarterly LAN networking events, an annual newsletter, discounts to select Chamber events, access to the LAN directory, private LinkedIn group, continuous learning events (behind the scenes tours, leadership seminars, etc.), and opportunities to actively serve and give back to the community which amplifies the impact of LAN involvement.
