Business Builders Launchpad

The Business Builders Launchpad is an innovative extracurricular program designed to ignite the entrepreneurial spirit in young students.

Over the course of an academic year, participants will engage in a comprehensive curriculum that covers the entire lifecycle of creating a business—from ideation and market research to financial planning and pitch presentation.

Students will develop real-world business skills, culminating in a capstone project where they pitch their business ideas.

This program not only equips students with essential business acumen but also fosters critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills, preparing them for success in any career path.

Lollipop Leadership for Next Gen

The Lollipop Leadership for Next Gen course is based on the book The Power of a Lollipop by Feena May, which focuses on developing good leadership qualities by enhancing their understanding of effective leadership practices and strategies, including AI.

This year-long program guides students through the fundamentals of leadership, including strategic decision-making, effective communication, and team management.

Through a mix of theoretical learning and practical exercises, participants will explore various leadership styles, learn how to lead diverse teams, and apply their knowledge in real-world scenarios.

By the end of the course, students will have gained the confidence and skills needed to lead with integrity and influence, making them highly desirable candidates for advanced education and professional opportunities.

Art Of Perfume Creation

The Art of Perfume Creation workshop introduces students to the world of scent and how perfumes are made. They learn to recognise different smells, understand how scent links to memories and emotions, and use simple techniques to blend their own fragrance.

Students also discover how the perfume industry works — from basic marketing ideas to the costs involved in creating and selling a product.

By the end of the workshop, each student has designed a personal perfume and gained confidence in their creativity, senses, and self-expression.

YES Academy students

Semester-long to Full Academic Year:

Our standard format spreads the learning across a semester (approximately 15 weeks) or a full academic year (30 weeks).

These sessions are typically held once a week for one hour, allowing students to deeply engage with the content without overwhelming their schedules.

This format is ideal for integrating into existing school curricula as an extracurricular activity, providing ongoing development and reinforcement of entrepreneurial and leadership skills over time.

Week-long Camp:

For those looking for an immersive, concentrated learning experience, we offer our courses as week-long camps.

These camps are intense and interactive, designed to cover key concepts and skills in a compact format.

This option is perfect for schools or organizations that wish to provide a robust learning experience during breaks or special learning weeks.

Customizable Schedules:

We also offer customizable schedules to fit specific time frames or academic calendars.
