The goal of the Summer Leadership Program (SLP) is to bring the accounting experience to the selected participants. As a result, the week-long event is tailored to show students the opportunities available to them in the accounting industry and at the University of Southern California . For example, the Accounting Workshops provide students with a preliminary understanding of the profession in terms of careers, methodologies, and education. In addition, the Case Study Competitions allow SLP students the opportunity to apply what they have learned in the workshops through hands-on activities. Other activities include:

Activities:
Accounting Workshops
Case Study Competitions
Tours of two of the Big Four Accounting Firms
Field Trip to the Paramount Pictures
USC Information Sessions
Social Bonding

Leventhal's Summer Leadership Program (SLP) is a week-long on-campus event to introduce High School students to the opportunities available to them in the accounting profession and at USC. In true college freshman fashion, the students live in dorms for the duration of the program and attend a regimen of classes at USC.

Parents are also involved. On the first day SLP reviews the week's activities and program facilitators discuss critical issues that will assist parents in preparing their children to enter the university. Parents will also attend the students' end of program presentations and banquet.
