LeaderShape

To improve society by inspiring, developing, and supporting more people committed to lead with integrity.


The LeaderShape Institute is an interactive, energizing, and unique experience that builds leadership skills no other program can match. And since 1986, over 20,000 participants from all over the world have graduated from our program. But be prepared! It is six days of non-stop self-discovery and learning from practical experiences that build your leadership concepts and abilities. It's go, go, go 12 hours a day... And you'll love it!

"The LeaderShape Institute for me was more than just a leadership conference. It helped me form a new way of living-leading with integrity. I truly believe in the principles taught throughout the week, including the unique ability to accomplish one's vision, through determination and belief."

- Andrew Murphy
University of Louisville

The Student Public Policy Forum

The Student Public Policy Forum (SPPF) is a co-curricular activity that provides an overview of local, state and national public policy making, citizen influence and involvement. A focus is placed on experiential learning, leadership development, and student engagement in public policy processes. During the course of the program, students will research and prepare to speak on higher education issues (Green sheet issues) specifically related to community colleges.


Any student of a participating college may apply for the Student Public Policy Forum provided they meet the minimum program requirements. However, space is limited and competition for available seats grows each year.

Applications may be printed from our website or received from your campus contact person. They may be submitted to your campus contact person by the application deadline of 4pm on the second Thursday of the month of September. Applications are screened and candidates are selected at the college level. Students who have been previous participants in the Student Public Policy Forum (SPPF) are not eligible to repeat the program but may become involved in continuing activities as a SPPF alumnus.
