Students meet several times each week for discussion and instruction on topics such as pastoral skills, spiritual gifts, small group dynamics, basic management principles, and leadership of public meetings and outreaches. In addition each student meets regularly with a mentor for feedback and evaluation. Assignments include reading and reporting on a number of books covering basic leadership issues. Students will be required to complete a Legacy Project which they choose and submit to be approved by the Campus Leadership Team. Their Legacy Project will be a special task they come up with and take on in their personal area of gifting with the goal of making an improvement which leaves the Base better than when they first arrived. Upon completion of their Legacy Project, the Campus Leadership Team will grade them based on their self-leadership/initiative, plan development and implementation, and excellence of the completed product.
