Ongoing LEI services are provided for students at Duke University in Durham, NC. Since 2005 we have also provided limited services for graduate students in the School of Public Health at the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill.

Each year LEI also provides training events at other campuses throughout the US. If you are interested in having a LEI training event at your campus, please contact us.

The easiest way is to call our office or email us.

3. Is LEI a religious organization?
The leadership model and principles taught in LEI training programs are based upon a biblical understanding of life and leadership. Our training programs are provided primarily in nonreligious contexts.

4. Does LEI provide training programs for campuses other than Duke and UNC?
We do provide programs to undergraduate and graduate students throughout the US. Please contact us if you are interested in a program for your campus group.

No. However LEI President John Hawkins works with businesses and organizations throughout America in the areas of principled leadership, ethics and change. You may learn more about this at www.leadershiplifestyle.com.

6. How is LEI funded? LEI is an IRS designated 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Our primary sources of income are through the donations of individuals, corporations, foundations and religious organizations. If you would like to make a donation to LEI, please go to the Donations section of the website.

7. Does LEI charge students for its services? For multiple hour training programs, LEI charges a minimal fee for materials and supplies. For student organizations with the financial means to pay for the services, we accept payment or honorarium. For universities and graduate schools that secure our services, there is a charge for the design and delivery of our programs.

8. How do we start LEI at our campus? LEI is in the exciting early stages of expanding to other campuses. If you are interested in having us begin LEI services at your school, please email us and tell us your thoughts.

9. Is LEI going to expand to other campuses beyond Duke and UNC? Yes, that is our intention.

10. How can I find out more about LEI? Call or email and give us your questions. We will respond as quickly as possible.

11. How do LEI services prepare students for leading in their spheres of influence after graduation? The experiences we offer through mentoring, classroom training and speaking engagements help spark the process of students proactively preparing for future leadership positions in their marriages, families, and careers. LEI Alumni can approach these responsibilities with the character, competence and commitment developed during their college years.

Those who mentor, train, design and speak for LEI bring with them years of experience in secular business and professional contexts. This allows us to design services that equip collegians for campus leadership and thereby learn transferable skills that they will need beyond graduation.
