Leadership Programs
Organized through our student chapters, our leadership initiatives include empowering our student chapters to have executive boards to run the affairs of their chapters which generally include, preparing a plan for each fiscal year, requesting and justifying funding for planned activities to both their schools and the professional chapter, executing the planned activities which includes coordination with service providers, engagement of speakers and resource persons, designing activities that address students' needs and gathering feedback from event participants for future planning. Executive Board members from our student chapters develop leadership skills generally not taught by any academic programs as it makes them managers and executive officers at an early stage of their professional career.


Case Competitions
Through our various case competitions we seek to support college level students develop analytical, critical thinking, presentation, public speaking and problem solving skills. It also offers prospective employers the opportunity to assess the non-technical skills of college student members outside of an interview situation. 

Mock Interview and Resume Critique
We help prepare our college student members through a series of "interview readiness" events. These include education about internships, hiring, interviewing and recruiting processes in general. It also focuses on developing social skills to better prepare our members for the workplace. We hold various events to review resumes of members, hold mock-interviews and provide feedback to members and offer guidance on appearance, dress and carriage. These activities enable our college students better prepare for internships and interviews.
