Looking for ways to maintain your good momentum into the next school year? Have some time that you’d like to use improving your future leadership skills? The Central Piedmont Summer Leadership Academy lets you connect with other Central Piedmont students and develop and practice important skills that will help you grow as a student and as a professional — skills such as time management, communication, conflict resolution, inclusion, and others.

Are you involved in or interested in serving in a leadership role in a campus student organization? Each spring, the Office of Student Life takes a group of students for a weekend-long leadership training.

The Leadership Conference (video) is designed to:

• recruit quality student leaders for the upcoming academic year
• foster camaraderie and teamwork
• reduce cultural barriers
• give you an opportunity for personal growth and development

The three-day training workshop includes mini-lectures, group activities, small group discussions and sharing, directed conversations, team-building activities, and informal interaction with fellow participants and faculty/staff facilitators. You can expect to be introduced to experiences to help you become more self-affirming, self-directed, open, and empathetic in your communication with others, and aware of strategies for planning and implementing campus activities.

A powerful growth experience awaits you — are you ready to blaze a trail?
