International Leadership Program on Education- 2025

International Leadership Program on Education is one of the flagship event of GILC & GEIST. It is  a one-of-a-kind initiative to engage students at a national level from all parts of the country and help them test their acumen in problem-solving, critical thinking, and leadership skills and become an effective and knowledgeable human being who is adept in English. This year, in the fifth installment of ILPE, the program is aiming to pinpoint the hidden potential of the students by including theoretical and practical apparatus of learning. This program, on the one hand, will measure English proficiency along with the problem-solving capacity of a student. To proper reiteration of the above-mentioned goal, the sessions and tests are organized in a unique way.

Briefly speaking, the total number of students will be categorized into four categories. Each of the levels of students has to go through two rounds with different objectives to be obtained. Also, the participants will be inspired to learn new ways of gaining knowledge with the help of workshops that will be taken online. Such a nationwide knowledge and network sharing event will certainly be a constructive way to spend the tedious days.
