Student Leadership Conferences

Our Student Leadership Conferences are international events for ACSI member schools that take place in Hungary early each school year. These are unique opportunities for students to grow in their faith and in their leadership skills, and to fellowship and worship together with like-minded young people from many nations.

We provide 2 SLC events in consecutive weeks, each with the same program and theme but different workshops and speakers. Each conference serves 180-220 participants from about 20 schools.

A 3rd SLC annual event is now being planned for mid-October of 2026 in the UK which will serve up to 100 participants. 

Upcoming SLC dates: 

  • SLC 2026 : Sep. 23 - 26 and Sep. 30 - Oct. 3
  • UK location - SLC 2026 : Oct. 13 - 16
  • SLC 2027 : Sep. 22 - 25 and Sep. 29 - Oct. 2
  • SLC 2028 : Sep. 27 - 30 and Oct. 4 - 7

SLC report 2025

Praise the Lord for His faithfulness and blessings poured out during the ACSI Student Leadership Conferences (SLC) this year! These gatherings brought together students and chaperones from 47 schools across Europe for a time of worship, discipleship, and leadership growth centered on the theme “Leaders Who Love Truth.”

Strengthening Critical Thinking

Christian schools are often intentional about teaching worldview and preparing students to engage with competing ideas. Yet the way we structure this engagement can either nurture deep critical thinking or unintentionally foster shallow habits of argument. Here are some practical tools to support critial thinking in the classroom.

Education as a Restoration of Hope

Today we turn to the good news: God’s plan of restoration through Christ. This is not only a personal hope but also a framework for how we think about education, leadership, and the shaping of society. How can we build meaningful outcomes into the process of teaching and learning which truly reflect the hope we have in Christ?
