Region VII Management Acceleration Program

The Region VII Management Acceleration Program (MAP) is an expansive training program that provides Head Start/Early Head Start Directors & Managers a solid foundation of Head Start principles and management practices. Participants begin a professional development journey that takes them through a continuum of learning of key Head Start systems.

Designed specifically for Head Start staff new to their current position two years or less, the Management Acceleration Program is the Region 7 road map to a better understanding and navigation of the Head Start Program since 2008. Though designed for Head Start Management Staff, other Grantee management who may also benefit from this program include: Executive Directors, Fiscal Officers, and Human Resource Managers.

The currently scheduled session of the program has been postponed. We plan to reschedule this training for a later date when we can ensure a more optimal experience for all attendees. R7HSA is committed to providing high quality, relevant training and will revise the program content to align with current HSPPS and OHS regulations at the time of program presentation. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to your schedule and professional development planning.
