Celebrating the CSAC Institute August Graduates!
Back to News
This August, we are proud to celebrate 41 public service leaders from Stanislaus and Colusa counties who recently completed the CSAC Institute Executive Credential program. On Tuesday, August 4th, we had the privilege of celebrating 32 leaders as they received their Executive Credential through the CSAC Institute Stanislaus County Campus. The following week, on Tuesday, August 11th, we celebrated the accomplishments of 9 Colusa County leaders who earned their Executive Credential through the CSAC Institute Butte-Colusa-Glenn Regional County Campus.
Over the course of their transformative experiences, participants strengthened their leadership skills, built meaningful connections with peers, and gained valuable tools to support their continued professional growth.
Through engaging sessions led by experienced facilitators, participants explored new perspectives, practical strategies, and approaches designed to help them continue making a lasting impact in their roles. Their commitment to learning and growth reflects the dedication and willingness they bring to their work and the communities they support.
We are grateful to Stanislaus County for investing in the continued development of its leaders, and to Butte, Glenn, and Colusa counties for their partnership and commitment to helping the CSAC Institute create opportunities for leadership development across the region. By investing in their leaders, counties help strengthen the services, care, and support provided to the communities they serve.
We are proud to recognize all 41 graduates and celebrate this significant milestone.
Join us in congratulating the latest 41 Executive Credential recipients from the 2025-2026 Stanislaus County and Colusa County cohorts!
