Women In Leadership Track III (CAPSTONE)


WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP ~ TRACK III CAPSTONE PROGRAM

Capstone leaders put what they’ve learned into action by serving as leadership mentors and student facilitators. This track is designed for students who have completed 2 of our Leadership Development Certificate Programs, want to further their leadership development, and serve as student mentors.  Capstone Leaders apply what they have learned and put it into practice, co-facilitate and create leadership workshops, and participate in a weekend service plunge.
