Through its emphasis on co-curricular, or outside-the-classroom, activities, you will earn recognition points and badges that will build your leadership skills and set you apart in a competitive job market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participating in LEAPP shows employers and graduate schools that you have invested in your own personal and professional development while at Queens. By completing this program, you will be able to articulate the key skills that you have developed that are critical to leading in the business world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no required pace for this program. You choose how you want to engage. We recommend that you complete the LEAPP Exposure badge by the end of your freshman year and the LEAPP Leader badge by the end of your senior year. However, you can go at your own pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Competencies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">LEAPP focuses on six competencies that we believe all McColl students should develop while at Queens. These competencies were developed through employer, alumni, and student feedback and are linked to NACE Career Readiness Competencies, AACSB Standards, and the McColl School\u2019s mission and vision.<\/p>\n\n\n  \n<div class=\"article-grid article-grid--default article-grid--default-column \">\n  <div class=\"article-grid__inner grid\">\n          <div class=\"article-grid__item\">\n                                  \n  \n<component\n  is=\"article\"\n  class=\"article article--break-default\"\n>\n      <div class=\"article__image\">\n                  <picture>\n      <source media=\"(min-width:768px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/09\/Briefcase.png\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\"\n        class=\"w-full object-cover\"\n        src=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/09\/Briefcase.png\"\n        alt=\"Briefcase icon\"\n      \/>\n    <\/picture>\n  \n          <\/div>\n        \n<component is=\"context\" class=\"context context--xsmall context--dark \">\n        <h2 class=\"context__heading\">\n            <div>Career Readiness<\/div>\n                <\/h2>\n        <p>Experience professional development opportunities that will help you achieve your career goals by securing internships and jobs.

Each activity is linked to one of the six competencies. As you complete activities within each competency, you will earn points and badges that showcase the competencies that you are developing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">LEAPP is powered by Suitable, an app and website that helps you track your progress in real time throughout the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Activity Types<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Events: Events include major speakers, workshops, and employer information sessions. Scan the QR code at the event to earn points in LEAPP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tasks: Tasks require you to submit a file or write a brief reflection. For example, submit a certificate for completing a LinkedIn Learning course; write a short reflection about your participation in the L.E.A.D. program; or submit a screenshot of your completed Handshake profile. You will earn points once the submission is reviewed and approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Points &amp; Levels<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You receive points for completing an activity. Each activity is assigned a level of 1-5 based on the anticipated time and effort required to complete the activity. The higher the level, the more points you earn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can track the points you earn in your Suitable dashboard and compete against your peers in the Monthly LEAPP Leaderboard Challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Badges &amp; Rewards<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Achievement Badges are what you are working towards throughout the program. You can showcase these badges on LinkedIn and to employers to highlight your accomplishments. You also earn rewards for completing each badge.<\/p>\n\n\n  \n<div class=\"article-grid article-grid--default article-grid--default-column \">\n  <div class=\"article-grid__inner grid\">\n          <div class=\"article-grid__item\">\n                                  \n  \n<component\n  is=\"article\"\n  class=\"article article--break-default\"\n>\n      <div class=\"article__image\">\n                  <picture>\n      <source media=\"(min-width:768px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/09\/TakeLeap1.png\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\"\n        class=\"w-full object-cover\"\n        src=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/09\/TakeLeap1.png\"\n        alt=\"Take the Lead with LEAPP badge\"\n      \/>\n    <\/picture>\n  \n          <\/div>\n        \n<component is=\"context\" class=\"context context--xsmall context--dark \">\n        <h2 class=\"context__heading\">\n            <div>Getting Started: Take the Lead with LEAPP!<\/div>\n                <\/h2>\n        <p>Complete four activities as outlined in Suitable.
