Leadership training

All CISV Canada leaders, staff and Junior Counsellors (JCs) are required to go through rigorous leadership training at both the local and national levels. Local leadership training is facilitated by the local chapter, and national leadership training is facilitated by the National Leadership Training Committee in the spring. At these national trainings, CISV leaders-to-be meet people from other chapters who will be participating in similar programmes, further prepare for the upcoming programme, and exchange ideas and experiences from CISV.

Who attends?

• Leaders for Village, Youth Meeting, and Step Up
• Junior Counsellors; and,
• Staff for Villages, Step Ups, Youth Meetings, and Seminar Camps hosted in Canada.

Please Note: Any first time leaders AND those switching to a new program OR those who have not attended National Leadership Training in the past three years must attend training. All Staff and JCs are always required to attend training.

What should I do to prepare for National Leadership Training?

You will receive local leadership training prior to attending National Leadership Training.  If you have not received local training and/or local training is not scheduled, please contact your local leadership trainer or chapter chair as soon as possible.
