The Purpose
The faculty of Student Leadership University invites you to experience a world class, high energy event that will allow your students to see beyond today and seize their futures. With the same clear purpose that thousands of students experience each summer your entire student ministry will be challenged and stretched to reach and exceed their potential with interactive, dynamic speakers, great bands and real world leadership systems. This fresh experience is perfect to facilitate already existing events such as Disciple Now, winter camp, and weekend conferences. There are many student conferences…but only one student leadership experience. That experience coming to your area is Leadership Rocks.

History
Leadership Rocks is an experience born out of the Student Leadership University organization. SLU, under the leadership, direction, and vision of founder and president Dr. Jay Strack, was established in 1994 with just a few students in an intensive cell group environment. Since that time, the scope of Student Leadership University has expanded to equip and empower more than 21,000 students to rise to the call of leadership. The primary commitment and dedication of Dr. Strack throughout the years has remained the development of unwavering leaders who are inspired to make a difference in their world.

Student Leadership University is based in Orlando, Florida, the innovation capital of the world, where our students receive their initial training as leaders. This intensive leadership instruction is successively continued in the stimulating venues of Washington, D.C.; London, England; Paris, France; Normandy, France; and Rome, Italy; where our students receive unparalleled training in relevant issues of global leadership as well as first-rate instruction in character and faith development.

Now in its twelfth year of operation, Student Leadership University is more effective than ever before and continues to be committed to training and equipping leaders who can competently address the issues that are at the forefront of society. Because we believe that the future belongs to those who are prepared, we are doing our very best to prepare ourselves and others today for the challenges of tomorrow.
