What is the Student Leadership Programme at DBS?

 

The Student Leadership Programme is one of our flagship extra-curricular programmes at DBS. This programme consists of a series of asynchronous modules, short courses, talks and seminars designed by industry and delivered to our Student Leaders in a collaborative way through our Student Experience Team, our Careers Coaches and industry specialists. 

 

The goal of this programme is to ‘Inspire Future Leaders’. This is achieved by helping our students to understand their own abilities, by completing their Work Readiness Assessment, and then enhancing their industry-specific skills through our Graduate Work Readiness Programme and our Student Leadership Series. By using these tools our Student Leaders will not only have a better experience within their leadership role, but they will attain important skills that employers are looking for, which will allow them to successfully navigate the future workplace.

 

This programme is exclusive to active students at DBS, who are participating within one of our Student Leadership roles. Currently this consists of our Students’ Union Team, Class Representatives, Peer Mentors, Sports Captains, and our Society Committee Members too. If you are interested in joining the programme and are not in a leadership role, please contact the Student Experience Team via [email protected]
