CEIE Leadership Academy
At the CEIE Leadership Academy, we create useful low-cost resources for use in communities and classrooms. When we cultivate a sense of core purpose, awareness and wisdom grow, as does our leadership in responsibility to ourselves, to our communities, to the spaces where we work, and to the places we call home.

Seeking Religious Literacy
Seeking Religious Literacy is a course that aims to enhance your understanding of current religious worldviews, as recognizing others' beliefs is essential to a healthier commons. The course is virtual, self-paced and spans five modules, taking the student on a journey through accessible multi-media content, including lectures, podcasts, and first-hand accounts from individuals around the world. The course's colorful design covers the arc of a 24-hour-period, from twilight to twilight, and concludes with a student assessment. The course is for individuals or can be easily facilitated by groups! For group-rates or any questions at all, contact the creators at markellk@seattleu.edu.
