complete the SEI Application
Applications are due June 1; however, we prefer to receive applications at least 60 days in advance of the program.
When reviewing applications for the highly selective SEI program, we
- give preference to city, town, and county managers
- consider leadership responsibilities
- weigh recommendations from an SEI alumnus
- may accept applicants who are deputy and assistant managers or department heads of large localities as space allows.
NOTES:
- You will need to complete the application in one sitting – you cannot save your application or start now and finish later.
- Do not use internet explorer to fill out this form. We suggest that you use an up-to-date version of Google Chrome.
