This 3D interactive experience is entirely based on real-world success stories from our « champions », graduates who have managed to turn their lives around thanks to the power of debt-free education.
COVID-19 has put remote learning and connection at the forefront. That’s why we built a cloud-based 3D simulator so students can also potentially connect to it remotely via a simple URL. This 3D space we built for them is a place destined to inspire hope, confidence and clarity. We will not let any virus shut it down.
