Leadership Training
Leadership is at the core of everything we do at QLA and the Leadership Program is the vehicle for the accomplishment of QLA’s mission which is to: “promote personal growth in young men by engaging them in an environment that promotes excellence in Academics, Leadership, Athletics and Character to prepare the leaders of tomorrow.”
The aim of the Leadership Program is to provide the vehicle for QLA to accomplish its mission. The Program provides a fully integrated academic and applied leadership program that will support learning in the classroom.
The Leadership Program plays a central role in the operation of the school and will be the bridge that links the classroom, the boarding and the extra-curricular.
