Operations Fellowship
Florida Charter Institute
Powered by Miami Dade College
Build the Systems Behind Great Schools
About the Fellowship
The FCI Operations Fellowship equips charter school leaders to build the systems great schools depend on: the routines, plans, and teams that keep a school running smoothly every day.
Why this Fellowship
Charter school leaders juggle enrollment, food service, transportation, facilities, technology, and many other responsibilities, yet few receive training to manage them. This Fellowship gives them the tools to run the strongest operations department possible, along with direct access to national networks and their best practices.
Program Highlights
- Standard operating procedures that become part of your school’s culture
- Time and task management across teams
- Project plans for your largest operations workstreams
- Tools and templates ready to use at your school
- Firsthand knowledge of best practices through national networks
- Five in-person sessions and four virtual sessions on Zoom, with national and statewide experts joining the Fellows
- A cohort limited to 15 Fellows, building a statewide group of leaders in the field

- Chief operating officers at charter schools
- Directors and managers who oversee school operations
