What is the Student Leadership Circle?
The Student Leadership Circle (SLC) is dedicated to leadership development and encouraging collaboration between student leaders on campus, through monthly workshops designed to target at least one relevant skill and/or VIU Graduate Attribute. We provide VIU students an opportunity to develop tools they can apply to their personal and professional lives. Using an evidence-based approach, we target the most underutilized graduate attributes and tailor our monthly workshops to this.
