The Northern Marianas College’s Compass unit is offering new, exciting summer youth LIFE programs called Project LIFE and Camp LIFE. <\/p>\n
Project LIFE (Lead Into Future Experiences) is a leadership development program for kids ages 12 to 14. This is the CNMI’s only summer program that provides CNMI youth with exciting leadership training to develop them into lifelong learners and leaders in today’s multicultural society. <\/p>\n
Students will undergo leadership training through interactive and motivating workshops, discussions, and activities. <\/p>\n
Project LIFE provides experiential learning in leadership skills, public speaking, stress management, team building, event planning, conflict mediation, goal setting, and more. <\/p>\n
Week 1 will cover Introduction to Leadership, Week 2 is Personal Development, and Week 3 is Professional Development. Project LIFE will run from June 14 to July 2, 8am-noon and will cost $150 per child. <\/p>\n
“Children deserve to become leaders; help them get there,” the college said in a statement.<\/p>\n
Camp LIFE (Lead, Imagine, Foster, Experience) is a summer program for children ages 8 to 11. The college said the program is designed to encourage children to explore their creativity, become entrepreneurs, exercise their athleticism, and develop new friendships. <\/p>\n
During Week 1, students will learn about team building and the importance of working together through various indoor and outdoor discovery and strategy games. Week 2 is devoted to exposing children to the joys of entrepreneurship. Students will learn basic business concepts and put them to use by running their own business. They will also participate in a Conversational Japanese class, a relevant and useful language that is growing in importance in business all over the world. Week 3 will allow the students to explore and express their creativity through craft making. <\/p>\n
Camp LIFE will run from June 14 to July 2, 1pm-4:30pm. Parents have the option to enroll their child daily, weekly or for the entire program. The cost will be $20 per day, $75 per week, or $150 for 3 weeks.<\/p>\n
