Organizational Policies

Welcome to the Clean Energy Leadership Institute's policies page! We are thrilled to have you join us in our mission to accelerate the transition to a resilient, equitable, and decarbonized energy economy. CELI is committed to creating an environment that fosters inclusion and belonging.

To that end, below is a set of policies that outline our values and expectations. We ask all accepted fellows and community members to familiarize themselves with the following policies:

  • Anti-Discrimination and Harassment Policy: At CELI, we condemn all forms of discrimination and harassment. This policy outlines our commitment to creating a safe space where everyone is treated with dignity and respect, regardless of their race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability, or any other characteristic protected by law.

  • Attendance and Participation Policy: CELI believes in the power of active engagement and collaboration. This policy sets forth guidelines regarding attendance and active participation in our programs, emphasizing the importance of mutual support and collective learning. Learn more >

  • Capstone and Graduation Policy: Independent study augments the fellowship’s directed curriculum and opens up opportunities to pursue deeper learning in a self-directed interest area. CELI requires that each fellow complete a capstone project in order to graduate from the program. This policy details the requirements and procedures for completing your capstone project. It provides valuable information on deadlines. Learn more >

  • Cohort Transfer Policy: We understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise during your fellowship. Our cohort transfer policy outlines the process for requesting a transfer to another cohort, ensuring that we attempt to accommodate your needs while maintaining program integrity. Learn more >

  • Refund Policy: We strive to offer an enriching experience for all our fellows. However, we understand that there may be situations where a refund is necessary. Our refund policy provides information on the conditions under which refunds can be requested. Learn more >

We are excited to embark on this transformative journey with you, as we work together to build a sustainable future for generations to come.
