student leadership competencies®

The Student Leadership Competencies® were researched and developed by Dr. Corey Seemiller, the author of The Student Leadership Competencies Guidebook. Leadership competencies include the knowledge, values, abilities, and behaviors that help an individual contribute to or successfully engage in a role or task.

Numerous industries utilize leadership competencies for training and performance evaluation. The competencies can be used to communicate expectations, design intentional training, and to create a standardized method of assessing competency development (Student Leadership Competencies®). Learn how to develop, implement, and assess a competency-based approach for workshops and professional development trainings.

If you work in higher education, use the competencies to cultivate student development and provide students feedback on their competency proficiency. If you want to create a systematic process for implementing intentional leadership development strategies, measure leadership development on an institution-wide basis, or align your academic programs with accreditation standards, look into the Student Leadership Competencies®.
