Training for Engineering Student Leaders

The annual Applied Science Training for Engineering Student Leaders (TESL), formally known as the Student Leadership Symposium (SLS), is a series of mandatory training for student groups across Engineering. TESL will be delivered primarily on Canvas, with modules that have been tailored to prepare Engineering student leaders, execs, and team leads for their roles in the upcoming year.

This year’s TESL training (2022-2023) has already opened to all registered student leaders. If your group has not registered for TESL, email APSC Student Groups (studentgroups@apsc.ubc.ca). The required modules for your group will vary based on your group type.
