The two-year program includes nine in-state seminars, one Domestic Study seminar, a National Study Tour to Washington DC, participation in the Gettysburg Leadership Experience, and an International Study Tour to one or more countries. Seminars three days long, usually noon Wednesday through lunch Friday, generally held in August, November, December, January, February & March of each year.​

Each KARL Seminar will assign a daily Chair to lead and a daily Scribe to document notes for each day, which all class members can access later for reference.​
