The purpose of ANS’s CLAW program (College/Career & Leadership Advancement Wednesdays) is career and leadership development; to offer our students courses that prepare them for ethical leadership in an increasingly global world. All CLAW courses are taught by credentialed and experienced professionals in their fields and follow curriculum developed by leading/reputable organizations and institutions.
Every Wednesday, students will take three required classes, one from each of the three main categories.
Each CLAW class is one hour long and is part of a six-session-long course (one cycle). Given the academic year encompasses four cycles, students have the opportunity to take four different CLAW courses in each category (C&C, GLD, EL).
During this component of CLAW, students will have the opportunity to:
Successful leadership requires strengths in the following areas: Debate, Influence and Persuasion, Negotiation, and Team Building. Each year, over the course of the entire year, students will have the opportunity to develop and hone their skills in one of these critical areas of leadership behavior.
During this component of CLAW students will explore the values, soft skills, interpersonal competencies required for ethical leadership in the 21st century. Topics include, but are not confined to emotional intelligence/optimism/resilience, personal health and safety, digital citizenship, human rights and civics.
