IAF National Leadership Training?

March 11, 2009 8:12 PM

Has anyone here participated in (or know someone who has participated in) the Industrial Area Foundation's National Leadership Training?

I'm being sent to attend a 7-day IAF National Leadership Training session by a community organizing group in my region, and I haven't been able to find much info online, either official or anecdotal.

I've done research on the IAF in general, read Alinsky, Obama, etc., but I'd love to hear from recent IAF training alum about what was or wasn't useful, who else attends, what they wish they had known going in, and other advice on how to maximize the experience. Because I'm being sponsored for a large chunk of change (especially for an NPO in this economy) I'm anxious to have something to show for this experience.
