Abstract

Hallmark University has a longstanding commitment to character development. At the highest level, the University prioritizes character development as a fundamental component of its educational philosophy, guided by the University's mission to transform individual lives through the cultivation of superior skills, knowledge, and character. Recognizing the critical role of character education in meeting the demands of employers and communities, the University implemented a comprehensive, compulsory Character Education Program in 2014 to integrate character education as part of our curricula in every academic course. Through extensive research and collaboration with employers, the University identified seven key character traits which serve as the foundation for professional leadership behaviors.
