Leadership in Action

Students apply leadership principles to real-world challenges, moving from ideas to action through hands-on projects and presentations.

Ethical Innovation & Technology

Learners explore AI and emerging technologies, focusing on responsible, ethical use while understanding both opportunities and risks.

Future-Ready Skills

The course builds communication, adaptability, and critical thinking skills students need to lead confidently in a rapidly changing world.

About the course

Series 3 builds on the foundation of self-discovery and career exploration by guiding students into real-world leadership and innovation. Throughout the course, students examine how technology, ethics, and decision-making intersect, and they learn how leaders use these tools responsibly to create meaningful impact. By the end of the experience, students develop and present a Leadership in Action project that reflects their values, strengthens their communication skills, and prepares them to lead with confidence in a changing world.
