 Return to: Northland’s Co-Curriculum: Character and Competence Curriculum
The Leaders Program is designed to support and foster growth in students who want to develop their abilities as leaders. Building on students’ previous experiences with leadership and service, the curriculum of the Leaders Program guides students through activities and experiences that help students identify their personal strengths and values, develop skills required to lead others toward a common goal, and garner the resources required to implement a vision for the greater good.
The Leaders Program has three components: Level One activities that develop new competencies built on natural strengths, Level Two activities that empower change through community engagement, and a student-driven practicum.
