COLUMBUS – Senator Nina Turner (D-Cleveland) learned this week that she has been selected as one of only 37 lawmakers to participate in a training program for promising state leaders. Senator Turner will join fellow lawmakers from 11 Midwestern states and three Canadian provinces this summer for the Council of State Governments’ 16th annual Bowhay Institute for Legislative Leadership Development.
“I am thrilled and honored to be given this opportunity to participate in such an outstanding leadership institute,” said Senator Turner. “As a college professor, I appreciate the value of this unique educational experience and I look forward to using what I learn for the benefit of my constituents and all the citizens of Ohio.”
The Bowhay Institute will be held July 9-13, at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. The Institute teaches leadership skills and analyzes a variety of public policy issues including the economy, economic development and corrections. Courses and seminars are taught by Midwestern legislative leaders, professional development experts and University of Wisconsin faculty.
The Bowhay institute was founded in 1995 to provide training for legislators. It is named in honor of the late James Bowhay, a longtime director of The Council of State Government’s Midwestern Office.
