Learning to Lead

Develop your leadership skills and make connections on campus through the Learning to Lead workshop series.

Join us for thought-provoking virtual and in-person workshops. You’ll build life and leadership skills, connect with peers, engage in reflective dialogue, and gain a deeper understanding of yourself and how you can best use your leadership skills within your community.

Open to all U of T undergraduate and graduate students (at the St. George’s campus) from any college or faculty interested in:

  • getting more involved in the campus community
  • developing leadership skills
  • applying for any type of peer mentor or leadership position on campus

This workshop series is a CCR eligible program. To complete the program, program participants must complete 5 out of the 7 workshops within a full year (including summer semester) of enrollment.
