The Summer Leadership Program is an essential part of the work and credibility that the Qiriazi Center has built over the years. Many students who have participated in the program are now involved in improving their communities as a result of learning about and being challenged to become today's servant leaders.

Training topics include: Vision and Mission Planning; Listening and Communication Skills; Essential Servant Leader Character Traits; Developing a Spirit of Excellence; Conflict Resolution; Understanding Personality Types; Management and Strategic Planning.
