Success story: How NYLC’s Certificate in Instructional Leadership is Empowering Philanthropy Programs in Texas
“Vickery firmly believes that the CIIL provided her with an immense wealth of knowledge about service-learning, even as her experience completing the program was very independent. ‘I got so much out of the class,’ said Vickery. ‘I don’t think there is a more robust well of information. It would have taken me years to find all of that on my own, so to have it all in one place was beautiful.'”
