NYU Law welcomed 180 students from 59 colleges and universities for the 2019 Leadership Enterprise for a Diverse America (LEDA) Career Institute–a five-day series of workshops and panels that developed the students’ networking and professional skills and provided insight into career opportunities. Organized by LEDA, the event took place August 10-14, with NYU Law serving as the host.
“Throughout the week, this outstanding group of young leaders learned how to navigate career exploration, engage with employer partners and explore careers across a wide range of sectors and industries, and were coached by seasoned career development professionals,” says Beth Breger, executive director of LEDA, in an email. “Executing this event with the NYU School of Law as our host was a remarkable experience for LEDA Career Fellows.”
