Description: The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) is the only federal agency with a legislative mandate (Public Law 93-415) to provide specialized services to corrections from a national perspective. NIC provides direct service as the primary means of carrying out its mission and responds directly to needs identified by practitioners working in state and local adult corrections, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, the Department of Justice, other federal agencies, and the United States Congress. As a center of learning, innovation and leadership that shapes and advances effective correctional practice and public policy, NIC is a vital partner in planning, developing, delivering and supporting capacity building leadership training to the field of corrections. NIC believes it takes skilled leadership at every level of a corrections organization to improve correctional practices and outcomes[1]. Current research into practice shows that leadership development is a process that requires dedicated effort through continuous learning and professional improvement[2]. Effective leadership development programs align with agency operational and strategic needs both with the agency delivering the programs, as well as the external agencies receiving the leadership development training.[3] As a result, NIC is seeking to partner with two correctional agencies who are interested in building the senior-level tiers of their organizations [1] Campbell, Nancy M.
