How the Learning Experience Works
Leadership is a habit built through practice. We use a simple, repeatable learning loop across six courses:

- eLearning Module
- Apply Concept in Real Work
- Group Discussion and Reflection
- Wrap-Up Session: Share and Reinforce Learning
Completed across six courses over six months, this loop builds practical leadership habits.
