In June 1999, SEIR*TEC held its first Leadership Academy at Smith Mountain Lake, VA.

Using the Authentic Task Approach, the teams established the focus of their work at the Academy. At the end of the week, each team participated in a celebration and shared their products aimed at resolving the problem they identified.
