Conference Curriculum
The San Diego Youth Leadership Conference is designed around the three main focal topics of Leadership, American Heritage, and Free Enterprise. We incorporate a variety of Speakers, Hands-on Activities, Practical Application, and Team Building Exercises that give the students information in a variety of forms and formats. This design is meant to help students of any learning style, and to reinforce information learned in one form putting it to use in another form. Our Curriculum is divided into a four-day program beginning with an all-student Orientation, and culminating in an awards ceremony on the final day.
