Prior to attending the camp, students complete a self-evaluation of perceived leadership skills. Students are in small teams in which they lead their peers through a series of problem solving activities. For this study, students (N=314) completed the survey again at the end of the 1-week leadership development camp. Paired t-test statistical analysis revealed a significant change in 14 out of the 20 dimensions (p < .001). Findings of this study suggest students perceive an increase in their leadership skills following a 1- week leadership development camp.enPublisher Policyhigher educationleadershipleadership development campArticle
