CONTENT WELCOME TO AIESEC Hello, potential AIESECers!
AIESEC is the WORLD’S LARGEST STUDENT-RUN ORGANIZATION. AIESEC is the GLOBAL YOUTH NETWORK impacting the world through LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT EXPERIENCES.
!
AIESEC has been facilitating youth leadership activities as well as international internships & volunteer experiences for over 65 YEARS,
developing a global learning environment across

What is the Global Leader Programme? AIESEC’s Global Leader programme allows students to gain relevant
professional experience and personal development. Our leadership development model is developed for youth, by youth – encouraging members to share knowledge, experiences, and a passion for world issues.
! We create developmental journeys by operating exchange programmes (Global Citizen and Global Talent), which sends students to volunteer or intern abroad and brings youth overseas to Singapore to volunteer with NGOs or intern with domestic companies.
! As part of the Global Leader programme, members are required to participate in AIESEC’s Global Citizen (GC) programme and embark on an exchange project to make a positive change in our world.

Depending on your role in your department, you are expected to work on average 5-10 hours per week.

I read that Global Leader offers international experiences. How exactly does this work?

In addition, there are many international conferences and opportunities for our members to interact with like-minded youths around the world, thereby expanding their network.
?
I did not attend the Information Talks. Can I still apply for Global Leader?
Yes! The Information Talks serve to provide you with a deeper understanding of us and our programmes, but it does not mean that you cannot apply if you did not attend the talks. If you have any questions with regards to the programme, feel free to ask any senior or drop us a ring/email!

FAQ Feel free to ask your friendly seniors any questions!
?
Can I just join the Global Leader programme without the Global Citizen programme?
You will not be able to do so.
!
As our Team Members (TMs) and Team Leaders (TLs) are the ones in charge of managing the Global Citizen Programme, it is important that our members go through the programme themselves. In AIESEC, we also believe that to develop entrepreneurs and responsible young leaders, they need to have a global perspective towards current affairs. Hence, the Global Leader and Global Citizen Programme come as a package.
?
How much do I have to pay to join the Global Leader programme?
You will be only have to pay for the Global Citizen Programme (S$515). The Team Member and Team Leader programmes come at no cost. However, conferences are self-funded.
