Community organizations

As well as working with educational establishments, Everest Leadership Academy works with non-profits, community groups and other organizations to customize their leadership programs to address specific leadership needs faced by that community.  We work with our affiliate partners to provide unique curriculum content  and teacher training so the affiliate leaders can run our programs themselves. 

A unique curriculum

Academic Excellence

Business Basics

Exposure and access to business environments and the principles and practices that will are essential for success. Our teachers and mentors are experienced and successful leaders who have “been there and done that”.

Emotional Intelligence

Leadership is not about knowledge. People with well developed emotional and social skills are more likely to be successful and effective in their lives. As a result the Everest Leadership Academy focuses on helping students understand human emotions and make them work for you, not against you.

Manaagement and leadership

With a exercises grounded in team work and collaboration, our curriculum gives students hands-on experience that helps them foster honest and open communication, collective action and successfull goal achievement.

Merit based scholarships

The Everest Leadership Academy provides students who are active members of a leadership program or a leadership club the opportunity to apply for a merit based scholarship to help them attain higher education opportunities that are out of reach to them for financial reasons. These scholarships are awarded on an individual basis but typically require the endorsement by ELA program leaders and an academic assessment.
