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. 14 - 17
- SLC 2027 : Sep. 22 - 25 and Sep. 29 - Oct. 2
- SLC 2028 : Sep. 27 - 30 and Oct. 4 - 7
