Students will use their voices, test ideas, grapple with complexity, have complex conversations, and synthesize their thinking as global learners.

Experience Design
Careful attention to detail is leveraged to customize our programming.
Far more than a string of webinars, our virtual programs are guided by a conceptualization of the program learning objectives and the emotional, mental, and collaborative experience we intend for students.
Is the group appropriately onboarded such that a community of trust and collaboration is established? How will the program closing inspire students towards action?
Do students have a role and stake in the success of the program?
What is the narrative arc of the experience? What is the emotional arc of the experience?
