Student Leaders

Student Leader Programme

The Student Leader Programme is designed to help first-year undergraduate students settle into college life by providing guidance and advice through the support of a Student Leader.

Student Leaders are full-time undergraduate students in their second, third, or fourth year of study or full-time Masters students who have experience of life here at NCI. The Student Leader can act as as a resource, a helping hand, a sounding board or just a person to talk to whatever the issue might be.

Benefits of becoming a Student Leader: 

• Unique voluntary opportunity to develop your leadership and organisation skills 
• Opportunity to make a contribution to the college community
• Increase professional employability 
• Enjoy a fun experience and make new friends 
• Receive a special recognition award and a reference from Student Support 
• Participate in training programs

Responsibilities: 

• Training: To attend Student Leader training covering an overview of Mentoring & Orientation.
• Orientation: Be available to volunteer during Orientation as part of your role as Student Leader. This is the first time you will meet your group of students and induct them into NCI.
• Attend Student Leader Meetings: To attend three group communication and feedback meetings organised by the Student Experience Coordinator to address issues raised by students.
• Communication: To communicate via different media to students throughout the year.
