About the program
The Global Leadership Program (GLP) is a free, self-paced, program designed to help you become a multifaceted global citizen, giving you a competitive edge as a graduate.
Is the GLP for me?
Do you want to better understand what’s going on in the world, develop professional skills and uncover your potential?
The GLP provides the framework, resources, and guidance to support your personal and professional development, prior to graduation.
What is it like to do the GLP?
You will:
- Attend expert-led workshops – Become exposed to new perspectives and ideas through interactive discussions with fellow program participants.
- Undertake flexible and self-directed practical activities – Internships, volunteering, conferences, career workshops, exchange, study tours, community courses, and more. Curate the GLP to fit your interests, professional goals, class timetable and other commitments with the help of your GLP Advisor.
- Become part of an active and engaged community – Connect with like-minded peers outside of your study discipline.
What will I get out of the GLP?
You can expect to gain knowledge and experiences, be part of a large community, and grow your networks and professional skills, all of which will put you ahead of the pack when you graduate.
GLP students develop:
- knowledge of international issues
- cross-cultural communication skills
- leadership skills
- a practical understanding of innovation and entrepreneurship.
If you complete the requirements of the undergraduate or postgraduate GLP, GLP will be listed on your Australian Higher Education Graduate Statement (AHEGS).
