## What the grant funds

MDF is NIC’s Management Development for the Future series, a dynamic, agency exclusive, individual and organizational development experience, which primarily targets the middle management tier of a correctional organization. This established curriculum simultaneously engages all levels of agency leadership through internal action-based learning strategies at the individual, team and agency levels.

The learning strategies used in this blended and hybrid delivery individual and organizational development series include three phases – one in person 24 - hour (3 in-person days) and two fully virtual phases (seven, 3-hour virtual instructor led sessions with intersession activities between virtual sessions), each delivered approximately 4 - 5 months apart.
