As well as the business outcomes, we care deeply about the outcomes for the students. Our programmes require no prior experience or academic achievements but focus instead on developing 21st-century skills, many of which are not taught in traditional education environments. These include Creativity, Curiosity, Problem Solving and Critical Thinking. They also learn key work-based skills such as Project Management, Communication Etiquette (Email, Slack etc.) and Time Management. These skills set young people up for success whatever role they go into.
