LEADERSHIP EXCELLENCE FOR THE PROFESSIONAL
This three-year diploma course of study is designed specifically for the professional person. Participation in the course is limited to those who are able to fulfill the entry requirements by demonstrating academic ability, as well as other attributes and abilities measured at the time of placing an application.
In this course, we study the nature of leadership, foundations for good leadership, leadership competencies, skills, and attitudes, but we believe that Leadership itself is a critical competency, and we believe it can be taught. Our intent is to both strengthen a student's abilities as well as uplift his or her spirit. That means the course is both practical and inspirational.
We strive for excellence. Excellence in anything - whether it's leadership, music, sports, or engineering - requires disciplined practice. We encourage students do so with commitment and consistency.

PERSONAL LEADERSHIP
This is a one-year course being taught in various communities by graduates of the Leadership Institute. Personal leadership is about trying to be the best a person can be. It's a process that never ends, because we never finish growing. It involves identifying what's most important to the individual and finding his or her gifts and skills, developing them so he can successfully contribute to others and the community. It's also about building one's character as the most effective strategy to building his or her personal leadership. Character comes from inside of a person-it reflects his or her values and principles.
BIBLICAL LEADERSHIP
This two-year diploma course of study is very similar to Excellence in Leadership for the Professional; however, instruction is given from a Biblical perspective. Therefore, students not only study principles, strategies, and skills for effective leadership but they also gain knowledge of the Scriptures as they study the basis and application of them in the Word of God.
