Leadership, Competency, Skills Assessment, Co-curricular

Competencies are highly utilized and valued in organizations, particularly for human resources and management activities. Competencies are beginning to play a bigger role in education as well, as programs are incorporating them as means to demonstrate skills of students as well as indicate progress towards a degree. In this session, we plan to discuss the development of a co-curricular and academic competency-based leadership program. We will describe the process of strategic planning, competency mapping, and implementing the program, and will seek feedback on ways to improve and assess the leadership program further.
