Customized Workshops & Presentations
Leadership & Learning by 4CS is a service of the California Community Colleges Classified Senate. This program connects you with a statewide network of classified professionals and community college leaders who deliver dynamic presentations and facilitate engaging workshops tailored to your needs.
Our presenters are current or former classified professionals within the California Community College system, bringing years of hands-on experience working with students, staff, and campus communities. Each speaker offers deep expertise in participatory governance, leadership development, and related topics—grounded in real-world campus experience.
Workshops are designed to spark new ideas, encourage collaboration, and support participants in uncovering their own potential. Through guided discussions, proven frameworks for communication, and shared insights from across the state, you’ll gain tools you can apply directly to your campus or organization.
Whether you’re looking to inspire your team, grow leadership capacity, or explore new approaches to governance, Leadership & Learning by 4CS brings insight, innovation, and connection right to your campus.
4CS Speakers, Presentations, and Workshops
We offer a wide range of speakers, facilitators, presentations, and workshops that can be tailored to meet the specific needs of your campus or organization. If you don’t see exactly what you’re looking for, we’re happy to collaborate with you to develop a customized session that aligns with your goals.
Our content focuses primarily on participatory governance, personal development, and leadership. Once your topic is identified, we’ll connect you with a presenter from our network who has relevant expertise and experience.
Many of our presenters are current or former members of the 4CS Board of Directors and Associates. They have delivered workshops at numerous high-profile events, including the Community College League of California Annual Convention, the Classified Leadership Institute, the 4CSD Annual Conference, and campus flex days and retreats across the state.
Planning for Your Presentation
After reading the offerings below, please feel free to contact us directly for the most recent information. Our goal is to provide you with quality assistance and services as you plan your retreat, flex activities, or meetings.
Many of our speakers are classified professionals currently working at one of California’s Community Colleges. Please remember, as you schedule your speaker or workshop, that our speakers are volunteering on behalf of 4CS to provide this service to you. Although we intend to meet your needs, the speaker’s availability is subject to their daily schedules, personal calendars, and work obligations. Please be understanding as we work together and try to meet your specific requests.
4CS receives no direct funding from the state budget and relies on various fundraising activities and donations that enable us to perform our mission. Your organization or group will be asked to pay a stipend to 4CS for this service. Rather than establish set fees for our speakers and workshops, we prefer to work with you to establish a fair, reasonable, and economically feasible rate for the services you are asking to receive.
In our efforts to provide and tailor our presentations to your needs, we will contact you to discuss in detail your request to make the necessary arrangements when you send in the speaker request form. If you have questions at any time, feel free to contact us at 4CS Director, Professional Learning.
