The 2009 Project looked at “Coal Fundamentals: An Overview of Coal Supply, Consumption & Transportation.” This web-based program was designed as a comprehensive introduction to the coal industry, suitable for educating new hires, public policy makers, students, the media and others with an interest in how coal is produced, consumed and transported. The Coal Fundamentals resource for new hires is available on the Members Only section of the ACC website.
How is the TLC structured? The TLC is organized as an open enrollment program – participants may join at any time but are encouraged to enroll at the beginning of each year. A one-year commitment is recommended to best benefit from the program offerings and opportunities.
What is unique about the TLC? The TLC is specific to the coal industry – the community of participants and their activities focus exclusively on coal. The program is intended to complement other corporate leadership development programs that are designed to advance more general business skills.
Who should participate in the TLC? Entry level staff and mid-level executives from the coal supply, consumption and transportation industries, as well as those working in companies that support these business sectors. There are no age-specific limitations – our participants have ranged in age from 20-something to 40-something. This program is for American Coal Council members in good standing only. u For more information on the Tomorrows’ Leadership Council, please visit the ACC website, “Committees” page (www.ations Director at 202-756-4540, or by email at jhayes@americancoalcouncil.org.
