The Chapter Management Program (CMP), a web-based program, is the method of formal communication between collegiate chapters and the national Fraternity. The program is divided into three achievement levels representing basic operational requirements in recruitment, membership, finances, professional and service programs, and leadership development for collegiate chapters during an academic year. These sections reflect the practice of essential business principles and operations expected of each chapter as part of our professional business Fraternity, as well as the professional and leadership development opportunities for each member. The three levels a chapter can achieve are Accredited Chapter, Chapter of Recognition and Chapter of Excellence. Every chapter is expected to achieve the Accredited Level.

|
The LEAD program stands for Leadership and Excellence Academies for Deltasigs, which are training, educational, and social gatherings of brothers from across the country. This program combines LEAD Provincial Conferences, LEAD Schools, regional conferences, area conferences, and volunteer leadership training. LEAD Schools are scheduled across the country usually in October and November. These events are one day (usually Saturday) and include numerous educational sessions. LEAD Provincial Conferences are conducted annually for each province usually in February or March. Provincial Conferences usually run Friday to Sunday and include educational sessions, a banquet and a provincial council meeting. I should participate to better myself personally, professionally and fraternally while also developing my leadership skills. It is also a great chance to support the Fraternity and have fun at the same time.

Explain the Educational and Leadership Consultant program in your own words.
|
One of the national services to collegiate chapters is a consultation visit from Central Office staff. The Educational and Leadership Consultants, and various other staff members, periodically visit collegiate chapters on their respective campus or through electronic means. The visits are specifically formatted to benefit the individual chapter, but typically include business meetings, training, and discussions about all areas of chapter operations including recruiting, financial management, professional programming, service events, diversity, risk management and conduct, academic encouragement, faculty and campus relations, alumni relations, motivation, teamwork, and more. Chapter operating documents and reference materials are also reviewed, discussed, and updated, including reports in the Chapter Management Program, chapter bylaws, chapter policies, pledge education program, budgets and financial records, membership records, and inventory of chapter assets. Consultation visits also include additional promotion and discussion about membership benefits, the Leadership Foundation, and leadership opportunities. Campus visits include public relations meetings with business Deans and Student Activities staff. The counseling and advising throughout a consultation visit will leave the chapter members with improved knowledge about national and chapter operations and provide new ideas for activities and suggested resolutions to common challenges faced by student organizations. The result leads to a well-rounded chapter with improved effectiveness in business operations and more dedicated, confident, and informed chapter members.
