Led by engage, the National Association for Gallery Education, the Extend Leadership Programme is a professional development programme open to applicants working in learning and education roles, across all art forms, who meet the eligibility criteria. The programme is tailored for colleagues from the arts and cultural sectors, to enable participants to achieve a greater degree of leadership in their future career

It is envisaged that 9 places will be allocated to candidates working in England, 4 to candidates working in Scotland and 1 to a candidate working in Wales. Applicants working and resident in England or Wales may work in the arts, museums, libraries or heritage.
