Ongoing Leadership Development

Leadership is one of the pillars of Marquette. Leadership, in an Ignatian sense, encompasses being a contemplative in action—that is a reflective and active leader who is part of the community.  

As student leaders we want to invest in your formation. All undergraduate student organizations are required to send one officer to 3 trainings in the academic year as follows (READ CAREFULLY):

1. All undergraduate organizations are required to attend Student Orgs 101. You must send at least one officer, and we recommend this be the President and/or the financial officer of your organization. This is a two-hour session that will overview basics of running and maintaining a student organization. See the schedule and sign-up here.
2. In addition to Student Orgs 101, student orgs must attend two additional trainings offered by Student Engagement. You must send at least one officer. The schedule of these is forthcoming.
3. Organizations who are in the Club Sports category must attend Club Sports training as designated by the Department of Recreational Sports. NOTE: This counts as one of your two required trainings as noted in #2 above.
4. Any organization who puts on a large performance event must attend the "Large Scale Event/Performance" training. This training will overview the updated Practice Space and Show Policy as well as provide helpful timelines for planning a large scale event. You must send any and all officers who are involved in the planning of your large scale event. This counts as one of your two required trainings as noted in #2 above.
   Training date is Wed., 10/2/24 at 5pm in AMU 227.
5. If you attend more trainings than what is required, you get extra credit!  This credit will be weighed when assigning closet space in spring 2025. It also bodes well in terms of criteria for student organization awards.
