Are you seeking leadership opportunities? The Oregon 欧洲杯决赛竞猜app_欧洲杯足球网-投注|官网 Institute (OLI) has been a cooperative program between PCC and the Oregon Council for Hispanic Advancement (OCHA) since 1999. OLI was started in 1986 by OCHA to help Latino high school students develop leadership skills, learn about opportunities for post-secondary education, and explore options. PCC college students mentor the OLI students throughout the academic year. College student mentors commit to facilitate the nine OLI Saturday Sessions by enrolling in the 欧洲杯决赛竞猜app_欧洲杯足球网-投注|官网 and Mentorship of Latino(a) Student class. This is a tuition-free, 3 credit per term class, which is offered during the fall, winter, and spring terms. Students are expected to take the class all three terms for a total of 9 credits and attend on and off-campus trainings and retreats.

The goal of the OLI is to provide Latino(a) youth throughout Oregon and Southwest Washington with an opportunity to develop leadership skills, explore career options, and gain access to institutions of higher education. OLI is an exciting eight-month curriculum for Latino(a)s ages 15 – 19 who are motivated to learn about themselves and their culture, and to become active in their community. Applications are available online at www.pcc.edu/oli
