LeADERS Mission

 

LeADERS is a pathway connecting undergraduate ODU students to enriching courses and active learning experiences resulting in a competitive edge in their chosen careers.

     Firmly adhering to LeADERS mission, my Old Dominion University's LeADERS program connected me to courses and real-world experiences in the areas of Leadership, Academic Internship,  Diversity, Research, and Service Learning. This LeADERS ePortfolio shares educational experiences and showcases my personal and professional development.

​

     As a post-licensure nursing major, I strived for an experience that would interrelate knowledge from diverse courses to create a more comprehensive insight into my accomplishments. Although it took me more than a decade to obtain a baccalaureate degree after gaining my nursing license, I always wanted my educational experiences to blend and be valuable for a better future in my career. I was very lucky to choose ODU! My RN to BSN program was exceptionally well thought out because the majority of my courses satisfied LeADERS requirements.

​

     Additionally, the LeADERS section of my ePortfolio allowed me to demonstrate the interconnectedness of my nursing and non-nursing courses. The platform expanded my understanding of the intent of various courses and their substantial impact on my future in nursing.

​

     Participation in the LeADERS program inspired me to pursue a higher degree. I am confident I have what it takes to continue showing my commitment to healthcare science and make a difference to those I serve.
