CSG West is pleased to share this firsthand look at the Western Legislative Academy (WLA) experience, featuring members of the Western WLA Class of 2024. In it, legislators reflect on what motivated them to apply, what impacted them most, and what they’ll carry forward in their public service.
Led by faculty from academic, nonprofit, and legislative backgrounds, the WLA program offers interactive sessions on communications, consensus building, ethics, focus management, and more. Class members not only gain new tools and insights — they also build lasting relationships with their legislative peers.
The 2025 WLA will be held December 16–19 in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
