SNAPSHOTS OF IEL'S PEOPLE AND ACTIVITIES

Class of 2005's Education Policy Fellowship Program (EPFP) D.C. site participants graduated in June 2005, in a ceremony held at the offices of another EPFP alumni. They were joined by sponsors, family, and friends to help celebrate their successful completion of IEL's flagship, year-long leadership development program, now in its 41st year. They now join the ranks of 6,000 other alumni nationally and internationally. If you would like more information, see our EPFP Web pages, http://www.iel.org/programs/epfp.html, or contact program associate Taryn Tyler at tylert@iel.org. Applications are now being accepted for the 2005-2006 class.
