The iCanLead Learning Framework
Participate in simulations, team challenges and discussions to discover new information and different perspectives. This process is defined in our Theory of Change, and it applies three key focal points to guide participants in the exploration of leadership development, social justice education, and civic duty. The focal points are: issue education, skill development and action planning.
Program Outcomes
- Improve participants’ leadership skills to become active agents of change within campus and broader community
- Develop campus-and-community development action plans and create positive change
- Develop student leadership capacity
- Canadore College has been working to develop custom modules and case studies for the program that are reflective of Canada’s diverse cultures, traditions and knowledge, and will cover additional themes like anti-bullying, creating a caring and positive campus culture, active citizenship and more.
How to join iCanLead

It may be an individual project or group collaboration in conjunction with your fellow member of the iCanLead team.
In the role of iCanLead Team member, you may be working with a very diverse group of people.
