Leadership Badging Program
This wellbeing-focused program enables students to earn micro-credentialing badges by participating in classes, events, and programs that align with their personal and professional goals. These four badges serve as building blocks toward earning leadership credentials and a certificate of completion, to enhance students' professional development areas of knowledge.
Students are encouraged to engage in as many opportunities offered throughout the program. Each badge builds upon the previous one, and allows personal reflection and synthesis of concepts and materials.
Each module is self-paced for students to progress through during the semester. Badges will be reviewed and earned annually, with the opportunity to earn a formal certificate and acknowledgement of their accomplishment upon completing four years of the program.
To start the program, students can enroll in the Student Wellbeing course on Brightspace.
