We want to congratulate all our students who completed the Leader Certificate Program. The University’s Leader Certificate Program is focused on preparing the next generation of leaders with the knowledge, tools, and mindset that model, motivate, and engage others to make right and just choices for the common good.
There are three courses that make up the program. The first is LDR 225: Applied Leadership. In this course students explore what it means to be a leader using the 7 Leader Habits within Common Leader Vocabulary, assess and understand their strengths, explore several leadership theories, and create a personalized development action plan with a leader coach.
The second course, LDR 325: Leadership Practice, focuses on the three leader habit development opportunities with the guidance of a Dexheimer Leadership Fellow.
Lastly, LDR 425: Applied Leadership Reflection, combines what the student has learned during their leadership journey, to produce as their final project, a philosophy of leadership. This written philosophy of leadership will help them to focus on their capacity for good as they go into the world.
