Develop and refine your confidence, leadership skills, and communication acumen all in one weekend! These are the lessons that aren't taught in classrooms!
Introducing College Ready! – A Weekend Leadership Immersion Workshop to Empower High School Seniors and Recent Graduates with Confidence, Leadership, and Life Skills
Why It Matters for Parents
The leap from high school to college, gap years, or first jobs is one of the most critical transitions in a young person’s life. While academic preparation is important, many parents worry whether their child has the confidence, independence, and leadership skills needed to thrive. College Ready! is designed to give students those very tools—practical skills that will serve them for a lifetime, both in and out of the classroom.
Parents everywhere want to see their young adults thrive as they step into life after high school. To support that exciting (and sometimes overwhelming) transition, The Linking Center for Human Achievement is proud to announce the launch of “College Ready! Leadership Development for High School Seniors and Recent Graduates,” a weekend-long workshop designed to help teens enter college or the workforce with confidence, resilience, and strong social-emotional skills.
This interactive and supportive program will guide participants through:
Dream Definition & Goal Setting – Helping students identify, shape, and pursue their unique vision for the future.
Socio-Emotional Learning – Building empathy, communication skills, and emotional intelligence to foster lifelong success.
Resilience & Confidence Building – Strengthening young adults’ ability to adapt, bounce back, and lead in new environments.
Overcoming Social Anxiety – Practical tools and practice to engage confidently in conversations, friendships, and professional settings.
