Programs
Our programming initiatives provide emerging talent exposure to various industries and job sectors keeping business and technology at the foundation of each program. We design our curriculum to meet the skill needs of the 21st century workforce. Whether a program is a one day or a 12-week experience we utilize an interactive multi-disciplinary Project Based Learning model.
We aspire to create real-life scenarios where participants work collaboratively towards the same goal. Whether we instruct 30 or 100 students, we strive to ensure participants get both individualized and collective guidance as well as feedback throughout the program.
“It all begins with exposure and it’s essential that we open the minds of emerging talent by giving them the opportunity to explore, discover and try things out. It’s the best way for them to learn, think independently and grow.”

Stand out.
Our overall mission is to create life-changing and transformational experiences that prepare emerging talent for the future. We know far too well that students are often uncertain about their future plans and what they might be good at. The more participants can explore, the more confident they become in their choices and pursuits.
When we allow our participants to explore, they can gravitate towards what excites them. When students are passionate, they become more invested in the journey, which cultivates the desire to excel. We know that learning can be a dynamic experience and our diverse programming helps to promote a love for learning.
