SLI workshops should be: 

  • Interactive and engaging
  • Generally 45-60 minutes long
  • Concerning any topic that can be tied back to leadership
  • Focused on Leading Self, Leading Others, Leading in a Diverse World, or Leading @ IC

Partner Programs

In addition to creating workshops just for SLI, any campus office or organization can partner with SLI and include their educational programs in our SLI lineup! We post these workshop sessions to our IC Engage page in order to track attendance, and a Student Leadership Consultant will be present at your event to take attendance for SLI credit. 

Any requests to offer existing events for SLI credit can be submitted via the SLI proposal form following the same dates and deadlines as above. Please consider which of our four paths would fit best with your program, and we will let you know if we accept your program as part of our series!
