While 2010 has not yet ended, I would like to already look beyond this year to share with you the 2011 programme of the IAF (International Academy for Leadership) and encourage you to forward it widely within your organizations. Those among you who participated in the past will agree that the IAF seminars are, frankly, the most valuable training instrument that we possess at the foundation. The Academy is therefore reserved for our closest partners worldwide: For more information on the Academy, visit http://www.visit.fnst.org/webcom/show_article.php/_c-1160/_nr-12679/_lkm-970/i.html Reports written by participants from this part of the world about their IAF experience are now online on the Amman office website under http://fnst-amman.org/en/index.php/training-programmes/reports.html All nomionations will be screened by the academy and around 24 participants from all over the world will be chosen per seminar. Those selected will receive invitation letters and we would then assist with all necessary visa and travel procedures. As with most of the foundation's activities, we will be covering all workshop-related expenses (flight ticket, local transportation, full board accomodation, visa fees, travel insurance etc.), with the exception of a symbolic participation fee in the range of 100-200 Euros. In addition to English, a few selected seminars will also be offered with Arabic simultaneous interpretation in 2011. The FNF Amman team and I will be happy to encourage nominations from among our friends and partners at those seminars that correspond with the nominees' organizational and individual profile. To apply, please submit a motivation letter, CV and support letter drafted by your organisation to naumann.jorleb@fnst.org and dima.al-jolani@fnst.org. We look forward to your nominations
