How will you learn

Each module will include approximately 30-40 minutes of essential video content, along with additional content (such as readings, podcasts, and extra videos) for those who wish to explore the topic further. Workbook activities are comprised of reflective questions that will help you consolidate your learning from the videos and apply this learning to organisations you are familiar with. They should require no more than an hour’s thinking. Workbooks are not assessed. They’re designed to present you with thought-provoking questions to consider.

Live sessions will run for approximately 90 minutes, with additional networking and question time available afterwards if you choose to stay.

Additional activities, such as reading, conversations and bonus content, will allow you to dive deeper into the topic. You’ll have access to the modules after the sprint is complete, so you can always return to the extension activities later.

The final project requires participants to reflect on concepts and skills learned throughout the sprint, considering how they might be applied to real-world situations.

Participants are encouraged to think about their project in relation to their own organisation or experience, but this is not mandatory.
