Why Should You Attend this Program?
Group activities support the MIP network
Participants describe MIP's course content as high quality. But they stress even more how much they benefit from idea sharing and networking with their classmates from across the country. Thanks to comments like these, the agenda has been enriched with group activities that support the national MIP and cooperative network.
Projects let you apply learning
As a participant, you will have the chance to apply what you've learned in two projects: 1) a small-group project, and 2) an individual project. You will be able to complete the small group project while in Madison working with select colleagues. The individual project is completed at home and is designed to benefit you and your organization through the application of concepts and tools gained in the classroom. Results of both projects will be shared with the class.
Who Should Participate
New CEOs/general managers, CFOs, COOs, vice presidents, and others in, or aspiring to, a co-op senior leadership role.

HOW DO MIP AND MIP SELECT DIFFER?
MIP Select incorporates select modules of the MIP at a scope and competency level that will help attendees develop important skills and abilities to lead them to success.
To learn more about the distinct characteristics of each program, please review this
comparison chart (PDF).
Below are two examples where the MIP and MIP Select differ in scope and competency levels:
MIP: Strategic thinking and execution are both explored and developed in the MIP. Focus is placed not only on identifying and defining strategic initiatives but also on execution of those initiatives.
MIP Select: The strategy module will focus on change/risk management and implementation of strategy via daily operations and goals.
EXAMPLE B
MIP: The focus is on power supply issues and approaches, including a full-day examination of the history of cooperative power supply, distributed energy resources, G&Ts, All Requirements Contract issues and risk as well as two other significant components — managing a power portfolio in a dynamic market and power supply for unaffiliated distributions systems.
MIP Select: This module concentrates on G&Ts and their role in the market, risks associated with supply and All Requirements Contract issues.
