LEAD provides opportunities for you to maximize your potential in areas of personal, professional, leadership and fraternal development. Grants are provided by the Delta Sigma Pi Leadership Foundation to the Fraternity which in turn results in lower registration fees for all attendees. The full registration fee for the LEAD Provincial Conference includes educational, leadership and professional development sessions, lunch, dinner and entertainment, conference materials and unlimited networking opportunities for all attendees.
