MarylandOnline Leadership Institute (MOLLI)
Started in 2017, MOLLI has become one of MOL’s premier programs offered to member colleges and universities. The Institute focuses on supporting cohort groups in e-learning, enabling MOL to steadily expand and nurture a strong Maryland-based network of emerging leaders in online education.
The centerpiece of MOLLI is a four-day, small-group, immersive summer Residential Program (RP) held at Historic Inns of Annapolis. After a year of virtual programming, the RP will resume in October 2021 and is expected to return to summers starting in 2022. The Residential Program is subsidized by MOL, making it affordable, and participants are nominated by their MOL institutions.
In the four years since its first Residential Program, MOLLI has grown beyond a single event. The Institute now has multiple facets, including year-long team projects, leadership webinars throughout the year, and a professional network that crosses cohort groups and encompasses and serves all MOL institutions.
