We help students learn what they are best at and then work with teams to identify how their individual strengths contribute to the overall effort. 学生们经常发现小组项目是一种具有挑战性的经历. 在我们的创新项目中, we provide the support and structure to make the team experience a positive one. Students develop a better understanding of what it means to work on a team and how they can uniquely contribute. Our innovation teams are highly successful at not only delivering high-quality projects but fostering a positive team experience with skills that students can take into their future careers.

技术熟练程度

我们相信学生需要舒适, 如果不熟练, 使用与其领域相关的技术. We provide access to high-powered computers and software and mentor students in developing their digital literacy skills - whether they are prototyping an app or working on a data science application. Many of our students start with no knowledge of ‘coding’ and develop confidence in their capabilities. This knowledge of technology and flexible mindset has helped many of our students get jobs.
