Downloadable Workshops

These modules are designed to provide students and campus administrators with training in the essential tools and strategies needed to enact social change in communities and on campuses. Whether you're looking through this site on behalf of a group you work with or you're looking to hone your own leadership skills, these workshops should prove useful.

The original set of training modules, known as the Civic Engagement Curriculum, was Developed by C.O.O.L. (Campus Outreach Opportunity League) in partnership with The Bonner Foundation. These workshops are free for public use, and you're welcome to contact us if you’d like assistance tailoring the workshop to your needs.

Because these modules were developed in the United States, several are specific to that country's educational and cultural structures. To see some resources in Spanish, visit our Idealistas.org Community Action Center. We are working on expanding this list to be more useful for our international constituents, and we welcome feedback and suggestions from students and campus staff outside the United States.
