Established in 1984, this upcoming class will be the 31st class. The program begins in August with an overnight retreat and continues through graduation in early June. Leadership Paducah is a professional development experience that fosters an in-depth understanding of Paducah and McCracken County.  In the monthly day-long sessions, participants will learn about the community through hands-on experiences and visits to see more about local government, industry, tourism, education, history, health, transportation and education sectors. Classes include enrichment sessions to develop the leadership potential of men and women in the area. Individuals who live or work in the Paducah-McCracken County area are eligible to apply.  

Selection of class participants is conducted by a committee representing the Paducah Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors and the Leadership Paducah Foundation Board of Directors.
