The REAL program is designed to be flexible to can work with and fit all schedules and lifestyle choices. The only requirements to obtain the first certificate are to take five workshops and complete eight hours of community service, but students get to choose how and when they do this and which workshops they want to take.
"This program is designed so that students have the opportunity to tailor the certificate to fit their personalities," said Bobby Kunstman, the assistant director of SLiCE. "Our one main purpose is to give students a life-changing experience that they can grow from - whether it is from one workshop or the combination of many workshops."
By partnering up with the career center, the REAL program aims to teach students not only about leadership, but also how to use leadership in their careers and futures.
Students can choose to complete one workshop or all levels of certificates.
Each level of certificate gets more involved and more specific into a certain category of leadership.
A calendar of fall workshops can be found on the SLiCE Web site, http://www.slice.colostate.edu.
