The Emerging Leaders Program (ELP) is designed for professionals in the crop insurance industry that seek to increase their knowledge and hands-on experience with key issues. Throughout the program, Emerging Leaders receive advocacy and communications training, and have the opportunity to attend three CIRB Executive Committee Meetings. The program will help build the next generation of crop insurance leaders.

The application process for the 9th Annual Emerging Leaders Program Class is now open. Applications are due to Tracy Boyle by June 30, 2023, at 11:59 EST.  The program is open to all employees of CIRB member companies. Participants are expected to commit to the full schedule of events.
