CIRCLE<\/b><\/p>\n

Creating International Relationships through Cultural Leadership Education<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The CIRCLE program is designed to educate and empower emerging leaders between the ages of 20-40 in the Columbus Region through strategic global partnerships and <\/span>international experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n

The program consists of four weekend trainings and a week-long delegation to one of our Sister Cities. The weekend trainings will revolve around the themes of leadership development and team-building, international interdependence, international travel and how to share the Greater Columbus region with the world. Some examples of training sessions are in the diagram below.<\/span><\/p>\n
