You are invited to register two (2) students to participate.
Your students will be exposed to interactive team building activities, prominent Nebraska and national leaders and community service – all of which help them discover, develop and apply their leadership skills. More than 6,000 students from over 300 school districts across Nebraska have attended this seminar.
Why should my student attend NLS?
Volunteer led
NLS, from the Corporate Board, Alumni Association and Seminar staff, is composed nearly entirely of volunteers. The dedication and passion of these individuals provides future Nebraska leaders with knowledge of themselves, their strengths and what they can do to impact their communities.
Campus experience
Students get a true on-campus experience as they live in the dorms of a higher education institution.
Authentic leadership
NLS’s curriculum is based on the discovery, development, and application of a student’s leadership skills, making them more self-assured and confident in their leadership abilities, and being true to who they are as a person. We call this leading with their authentic self.
Ongoing support
NLS supports your students even after the seminar is over by offering reunions to hone in on their developing skills and further promote the networking established during the seminar.
Communities of purpose
Students who have had the honor of participating in this once-in-a-lifetime experience have demonstrated a heightened interest in leading school organizations and are more involved in their community, inspiring them to make a difference.
Strengths discovery
Through the Gallup Organization's StrengthsFinder Assessment, students learn how their strengths contribute positively to all aspects of their lives, and impact their interactions with others in their community.
