WEPPNER CENTER FOR LEAD & SERVICE –LEARNING
Alternative Spring Breaks
Alternative Spring Break takes place during every academic Spring Break week, in which you will have the opportunity to give back to your community. This program provides a deeper understanding of issues that affect different communities in and out of South Florida. Global citizenship provides the opportunity to experience this life-changing journey with your teammates through reflection and community building, which makes this experience a memory to stay fresh for years to come.
Certified Student Leader
The Certified Student Leader program is a co-curricular certification available to students at the Florida Atlantic University interested in enhancing their leadership knowledge, application, and skills through a variety of leadership opportunities.
These opportunities may be tailored to students own interests, many of which are offered over the course of the academic year. This program must be completed in one academic year. Students can start the certificate program at the beginning of every semester (during the first six weeks). This is an ideal opportunity for students to learn about leadership while allowing for the flexibility to accommodate their busy lives and schedules.
Students who complete the program and are in good academic standing will receive a Certificate and will have the certification noted on their co-curricular transcript.
Day of Service Events
Day of Service events occurs throughout the academic year focusing on a campus partner organization. With Owls working hand in hand with the partner organization through reflection and service, this day of service turns into a opportunity to give back to the FAU community.
Reading Circles
Leadership Reading Circles provides the opportunity for students to immerse with Faculty to discuss leadership topics and experiences, in an intimate setting. Through books hand picken by the Davie faculty, Students have the opportunities to learn through text how to apply their learnings to their life in and out of FAU.
Roadmap to Success
Roadmaps to Success is a one-day conference on Florida Atlantic University’s Davie Campus in which FAU students will learn the skills and techniques needed to succeed in college and their future careers. We will have guest speakers closing and opening the event by sharing their respective journeys towards success with our students while your fellow FAU Faculty and Staff will be hosting breakout sessions that cover different sessions.
Join us on Saturday, March 23rd from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. for this transformative event! Register today!
