The unique six-month program creates the opportunity for a select cohort to work with 12 CEO Guest Speakers who have successfully led their companies through the transition. Each month, two critical aspects of preparing for graduation are addressed. Then, participants work with a Newport facilitation team to create their company’s specific graduation plan. At the end of the program, each company will have created a tailored graduation plan serving as a roadmap for the years up-to and immediately following graduation.

At the end of the 6-month program, each company will have created a tailored graduation plan serving as a roadmap for the years up-to and immediately following graduation.
