Junior Executive Programme: Community Immersion
Six weeks inside organisations that serve the public. One real community need addressed.
Week 1 is a classroom Academy on how public and non-profit organisations work and the ethics of working with communities. In weeks 2 to 5 students spend four days each with programme delivery, research and evidence, advocacy and communications, and governance and policy teams. In week 6 they design and pitch a community impact project. Strong evidence for MYP Service as Action and IBDP CAS.
