Monash has created a new way for you to develop your employability skills online. It’s called Leap into Leadership Online (LiLO), and it’s made up of a suite of free online modules you can complete any time.

Hundreds of students have already completed the modules and given them great feedback – so make 2016 the year you become a leader.

The modules will help you understand how to be a leader through online content that is practical, straightforward and fun. It takes about 1 to 2 hours to complete a module, and you can do them any time, at any stage of your degree. LiLO is perfect if you’re just beginning to think about your career, or if you’re keen to add to skills you’ve developed through volunteering, workplace experience and leadership roles.
