Are you looking for ways to enhance training and development of your Orientation Leaders?
The virtual Student Leadership Institute (SLI) is for all new and returning undergraduate orientation and extended orientation leaders, regardless of their experience working with OTR programs.
SLI is an interactive learning opportunity that cultivates leadership and teamwork, and prepares students to be confident and successful in their roles. Students will have an opportunity to meet other students in similar roles and will be able to share their experiences.
NODA is offering four institutes to choose from in 2024:
February 20 & 21, 2024 (2:00-5:00 PM CST)
This session is intended for returning and experienced orientation leaders, including student coordinators, directors, and team leaders.
March 26 & 27, 2024 (5:00-8:00 PM CST)
This session is intended for new or returning student orientation and transition program leaders.
April 10 & 11, 2024 (2:00-5:00 PM CST)
This session is intended for new or returning student orientation and transition program leaders.
July 16 & 17, 2024 (2:00-5:00 PM CST)
This session is intended for new or returning student orientation and transition program leaders who work with August programs, including Welcome Week, August orientation, semester-long orientation, mentoring, international student orientation, and FYE classes.
Each registrant will participate in two 3-hour virtual workshop sessions. The sessions will be a combination of large group presentations and small group discussions led by NODA faculty. Students will work through a curriculum covering leadership theories, facilitation skills, conflict resolution, community building, and navigating the unique stresses of post-pandemic leadership. The topics will be relevant for both new and returning orientation leaders.
