Leaders in our community series
WHAT: The Leaders in our Community Series is a plethora of community service events sponsored by PLS to help you develop your leadership skills in the community setting.
WHO: These events are hosted in collaboration with our student organizations and UIC COP departments as part of the series.
WHY: Not all leaders have titles; leaders also lead with their actions as well. As a result, the Leaders in our Community Series offers students an opportunity to actively become leaders in our surrounding neighborhoods by participating in community outreach events.
HOW: Requirements to receive the Leaders in our Community Certificate:
-
Attendance of at least 3 PLS-sponsored community events throughout the school year.
-
Short essay on leadership and community outreach
WHERE: Events will be advertised as having ‘PLS Credit’ or being ‘PLS-sponsored’. Qualifying students will receive the Leaders in our Community Certificate and be recognized at the Annual Student Pharmacist Leadership Ceremony in the spring.
