The Academy and “Canvas”

Online Learning Using Canvas & the RI Learning Center

The District Leadership Academy program is taught completely online using the Canvas platform, an online Learning Management System and the Rotary International Learning Center. This allows students to work independently or in a group setting on their own schedule no matter where they are as long as they have access to the Internet.

Highly Qualified Faculty with Individual Expertise

We know that learning is easier when you have an excellent instructor. That’s why each of our faculty members is a highly experienced Rotarian with extensive expertise in their individual course. They are passionate about the subject they teach and bring this enthusiasm to their course.

Courses Cover All of the Rotary Basics

The DLA develops leaders at both the club and district levels. The courses in the program provide the necessary background and foundation in all major areas of Rotary to insure graduates will be equipped with the tools necessary to be a truly effective leader.
