An immersive residential program where students from diverse academic backgrounds come together to tackle the world's most complex challenges while exploring various career pathways. Our hands-on skills training prepares participants for their future careers through a comprehensive vocational training experience. Our course is held in August and October each year.
During the first week of the residential program, students participate in careers immersive experiences designed to enhance their understanding of various career pathways and develop hands-on skills for application in week two. Alternatively, students have the option to create their own week one experience by selecting from a diverse range of mini courses, including business and project management and vocational training, to improve their soft skills.
In week two of our residential program, students tackle a range of challenging scenarios significant to global governance. These scenarios include addressing crimes against humanity and ecocide, as well as navigating complex legal and political dilemmas such as global pandemics or the first contact with extra-terrestrial intelligence. Drawing on the hands-on skills they developed during week one, students can explore various career pathways. We strongly encourage multi-discipline collaboration to effectively address the unique scenarios presented in our simulations, enhancing their careers immersive experience.
All students gain a certificate, awarded through graduation, to commemorate their time with us in our residential program. This experience provides not only a detailed summary record of achievement but also highlights the hands-on skills developed throughout their journey, which support various career pathways and enhance their university applications. Our focus on vocational training ensures that each student is well-prepared for a careers immersive experience.
While our residential program is scheduled for late August, we can tailor it to meet your group's needs, offering a careers immersive experience at various times throughout the year for appropriately sized bookings.
