The Empowered Student
A Master Course for Students, focusing on College Adjustment, Academic Skills, and Personal Formation. A learning experience that will launch you into Personal, Academic, and Professional Success.
Everything You Need, All In One Master Course
The Empowered Student master course is made up of three highly impactful courses addressing your adjustment to college, academic skills development, and your personal formation.
You dream the dreams... We'll help you reach them.
Students face many challenges when they begin their transition to college, and even the best high school students often find themselves unprepared for what lies ahead. When it comes to your education and your future, you deserve to be fully prepared, and this is exactly what The Empowered Student master course provides. We’ve narrowed in on the key elements of student development, bringing together essential areas that have the maximum impact on your learning, well-being, success, and fulfillment. In our The Empowered Student master course, we help you understand the college acclimation process, acquire college-level academic skills, foster personal formation, and we even set the stage for advanced professional development. And each course unit “goes beyond the obvious,” making sure that there’s applicable learning content for students at every level of college-readiness. This course is designed to provide you with the tools, resources, skills, insights, strategies, and perspective to take on college like a pro. With the foundation provided in this course, you won’t just succeed, you’ll thrive!
What will I learn in each part of The Empowered Student?
Acclimation
Success in college is important and this course helps bring it within your reach by providing you with the information, insights, timelines, and strategies you need to make the most of your new environment. You'll learn what to expect as you enter and adjust to your college community, who are your point people for personal and academic development, and how to access important resources, build strong habits, and attend to your personal wellbeing. This course is your foundation for success, allowing your to navigate your college landscape like a pro!
Elevation
High school may equip you with basic academic skills, but college-level education will require more of you than every before. This course "goes beyond the obvious" and provides you with comprehensive explanations of the college-level academic skills necessary for your success. You'll learn how to manage your time, prioritize your work, take detailed notes, read strategically, remember what you study, demonstrate what you learn, and develop learning strategies for any challenge you meet. Each lesson takes your academic ability to the next level, helping you elevate your skills and thrive in your new academic environment.
Transformation
What do you want out of your college experience? To perform well academically, experience all their college has to offer, and graduate prepared for the next phase of life. But how will you achieve all these things, and how will you know if you’re headed in the right direction? To live the life of your dreams takes self-knowledge and insight, and this course kindles that fire by teaching you how to practice introspection, build motivation, take responsibility, shift your mindset, build true grit, become secure in yourself, lead the life you really want. You’ll establish considerable goals, clear the path ahead, and set out on your way to accomplishing them. This course is your guide to living a successful, happy, meaningful, and fulfilling life, both now and in the future.
How long does it take?
The Empowered Student master course is built around a series of short but focused video lessons in three key areas (Acclimation, Elevation, and Transformation). We know how busy students are, so we've designed this course to be completed in just a few minutes a day over several weeks, with the ability to revisit different topics when you need to. Each lesson can be completed in about 10 minutes, leaving you the time to process what you've learned and apply it to your day-to-day life. Live your life, learn a ton, and come away feeling empowered to take on your future!
