LEAD

The LEAD (Leadership Experience and Development) Series is designed to provide BVC students with an opportunity to take part in various workshops and volunteer opportunities that will build their student life experience on campus and enhance their leadership and life skills.

Acknowledging the academic and personal commitments of students, the LEAD series is developed to offer a variety of learning and volunteerism at your convenience. To complete recognition in the LEAD series, you are required to attend a minimum of 5 workshops (usually 1 hour long) and participate in a minimum of 10 hours of campus volunteerism.
