STUDENT LIFE
Your Story Starts Here
Our Mission
“THE QUALITY OF LEADERSHIP, MORE THAN ANY OTHER SINGLE FACTOR, DETERMINES THE SUCCESS OR FAILURE OF AN ORGANIZATION.” – Fred Fiedler and Martin Chemers in Improving Leadership Effectiveness
The Student Leadership Committee plays an integral role in CAHE students’ academic and social lives. Class representatives are selected from various cohorts and act as a liaison between the Center’s administration and fellow classmates to streamline communication, drive student engagement and participation, and encourage strong academic performance. With numerous student-focused events and activities taking place at CAHE throughout the year, the Student Leadership Committee provides essential organizational support and insight to ensure the success of these occasions.
Class Representatives
The Student Leadership Committee is an excellent opportunity for students to develop their leadership skills and become actively involved in the Center’s Student Life. A Class Representative (“Class Rep”) is selected for each cohort to be the voice of that cohort within the Student Leadership Committee. Class representatives are required to attend quarterly Thursday night meetings during the academic year, where they meet with representatives of the administration to hear updates on the goings-on of the school and give insight on how the Center can achieve its goal of constant improvement. Whether one is the designated Class Representative or not, all students are encouraged to participate in Center-wide events!
Class representatives’ additional roles include, but are not limited to:
- Serving on Advisory Boards
- Uniting the institution and the various healthcare programs offered
- Helping to identify areas and policies that can be adjusted to better serve the needs of the community
- Coordinating various charity events throughout the academic year
- Representing the institution at various events throughout the academic year, such as regularly scheduled Open Houses
How can I become a Class Representative?
Details on how to apply for the position will be provided at orientation. All nominees will be reviewed by a committee and reps will be announced by Week 4 of their program start date.
