You Can Major in Leadership for Community Education and Human Learning

About this webinar
Get a clear, honest picture of the Leadership for Community Education (LCE) major at the University of Kentucky—what students actually do, what they learn, and where it leads. If you’re weighing options, you’ll miss how this program blends leadership, real-world experience, and flexible career pathways in ways most majors don’t.

What you'll learn
  • How this major prepares you to lead in real settings—not just classrooms—through hands-on work with community partners
  • The specific skills students build (communication, facilitation, program design) and how they translate directly into jobs
  • What makes the experience different: smaller, high-touch classes, early mentorship, and multiple career or graduate school pathways
