Who, What, Why?
WHO
IgnitED is a collection of education and industry professionals.
Founded on over two decades of expertise in premium education, programme design, and immersive learning, the IgnitED team delivers high-impact experiences that resonate.
We are passionate about closing the gap between academic education and the professional preparation required for a successful early career foundation. We help bridge that gap by igniting an understanding and passion in a pathway to continuing future success.
Our initial focus is a cutting-edge summer programme designed to connect students with real-world industries, setting the stage for lifelong curiosity and career readiness. As the professional landscape evolves, so does our offering—ensuring young learners remain equipped for the challenges and opportunities ahead.
WHAT
IgnitED offers teenagers a choice of week-long interactive and practical programs designed to help ignite their passion for a chosen profession.
Attendees gain hands-on experience through workshops, guest speakers, industry visits, and connecting with like-minded peers, forming new friendships and networks with others interested in the same industries.
Along with professional coaching, IgnitED provides a dynamic and exciting university experience. This week serves as a foundational step toward achieving their professional aspirations.
WHY
IgnitED is committed to fostering sustainability and collaboration through circular economy principles, ensuring our programmes create long-lasting value for both participants and communities. We prioritise supporting local young people by building meaningful touchpoints with higher education institutions and industry organisations within the region. These partnerships provide students with access to valuable resources, mentorship opportunities, and practical experiences, all while strengthening connections between education and local industries to nurture thriving, resilient communities.
IgnitED’s widening access programme ensures that every registration helps cover the cost of a registration for a participant that wouldn’t otherwise be able to attend.
