Digital Age Ideation and Project

Digital Age Academy Inc.

Empowering high school students for the future of work through online project-based workforce and entrepreneurial development programs

Digital Age Ideation is the first stage of a four-stage program at the Digital Age Academy, which is followed by Digital Age Project.

Digital Age Ideation offers a unique experience for you to learn how to identify needs in your community, the society or the market in general and come up with valuable ideas to address those needs. You will first learn how to think broadly in order to identify needs and recognize problems in your community/society/market. You will then team up with four other students with similar ideas to generate innovative solutions for the next stage of the program, Digital Age Project.

In the Digital Age Project stage, you will utilize data science and computer tools to solve the problems you have identified over a period of five months with the help of your mentor. Your mentor is a professional who works in a tech-related/artificial intelligence-oriented industrial sector. You will learn several skills while you are moving your projects forwards directly from your mentors and through recorded video tutorials. At the end of each stage, you will receive a Certificate of Completion and have the opportunity to move forward to the next stage.

If you are interested in transforming your project into a startup company, you will have the opportunity to enter the third and fourth stages of the program, Digital Age Incubator and Accelerator.
