Stages of Student Development with Ascendance
STAGE 1
AWARENESS AND EXPOSURE
A student will begin their journey with Ascendance by participating in one of our 100+ events ranging from mini-mentorship sessions by C-Suite executives, leadership and capacity-building workshops, global conferences, student-led talk shows and interest clubs. Through these events, students will begin to increase their awareness of the world, understand the workings of their mind and learn about the various opportunities available for them to explore.
STAGE 2
PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
The students who wish to continue their learning journey will embark on the personal development stage. Here we will build their capacity and enhance their leadership and communication skills. Students will begin to take action towards their goals in all areas of life while developing their skills and abilities. They will be given opportunities to explore fields of their interests in a more hands on manner.
STAGE 3
STARTUP AND BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
As they begin to develop themselves, students who exhibit potential will be selected to be mentored by the Ascendance team and the associated entrepreneurs & corporate leaders. Students will be guided to develop their own social enterprises from an idea to a self-sustaining enterprise. These students will bring about change not only in their lives but also in the lives of their communities.
