Startup Skool

At Startup Skool, we’re focused on teaching the next wave of young leaders ages 8 to 18, how to think with an entrepreneurial mind, so that one day they can tackle our society’s most difficult social and environmental problems – and make real change. Our hands-on programs focus on developing the core skills that are found in today’s cutting edge leaders: Critical Thinking, Problem Solving, Communication, Creativity, Confidence, and Resilience. Your child will learn the fundamentals of starting their own business and develop digital literacy skills, ultimately building a foundation to excel in the real world.

Our International Innovation program campers come from all over the world ages 8 to 18 and will join local students to explore the world of business and technology at picturesque University of British Columbia campus or downtown Vancouver at the Centre for Digital Media.
