The Broad Center, founded in 2001, operates in the education administration field with a focus on developing leaders for K-12 education systems. It identifies talented individuals from inside and outside K-12 education and supports their work in school systems, aiming to ensure central-office decisions and resources expand educational opportunities for all students. Based in Los Angeles, California, the organization runs two long-form programs: The Broad Academy, a two-year fellowship for system leaders, and The Broad Residency in Urban Education, a two-year management development program for early- and mid-career professionals. The Broad Residency places participants in full-time roles within urban school districts, public charter networks and state education agencies, enabling immediate impact while developing leadership capacity; nearly 90 percent of alumni remain in K-12 education. The organization's work focuses on how resources and decision-making can powerfully affect student outcomes in public schools. It has transitioned to a new home at the Yale School of Management, with future programs to be offered under The Broad Center at Yale SOM.
