Thirty-two weeks in executive leadership and business.
Grade 11 and 12 pathways across six core tracks. Students learn on mobile, practice in class and finish with a capstone venture defended before industry mentors.
The six tracks.
Sequenced so each track builds on the last, ending with a capstone that draws on all of them.
