ANNISTON ARMY DEPOT, Ala. -- The depot graduated 13 individuals from its Depot Leadership and Management Program May 8.

The four-week course trains future depot leaders through classroom instruction and real world experience. The latter is done through a shadowing program as students are paired with current depot leaders.

Col. Brent Bolander, the depot commander, presented the certificates to each member of the class. He stressed to them the importance of this leadership class and how it can benefit their careers.

Bolander also asked each student to talk about the aspect of class where they learned the most. Many said they learned different types of leadership styles through shadowing different people on the installation.

Class will take an Influential Leadership course, intended to enhance the leadership skills of current and future leaders/supervisors in June.

Following completion of the ANAD DLAMP course, students have one year in which to complete the next phase of their leadership training, a two-week Civilian Education System residency course in Fort Leavenworth, Kan.
