Inspired Student Leadership
Micro Credential
Leading without the right tools is tough. Students are eager to make a difference, but without guidance their projects often fizzle out or miss real community needs. Educators don’t always have the time to provide structure, and schools have a unique opportunity to meet IB, CIS, and university expectations while fostering authentic, lasting student leadership. With the right systems, student leaders can move beyond surface-level projects to create meaningful impact that lasts.
