Interactive workshops
Through interactive workshops, targeted support and a strong peer community, participants build competencies in communication, collaboration, innovation, and career development.
Each term, Volt-Age and GradProSkills offer workshops that combine expert insights with hands-on learning. We encourage trainees to attend as many sessions as possible to broaden their skills and experience.
Exploration sessions
Hear from faculty, guest speakers, professionals and peers working across disciplines. Discover emerging practices and gain new perspectives on research challenges.
Application sessions
Twice a year, apply your learning in collaborative, real-world problem-solving activities. Work in teams to design creative solutions that build leadership and innovation skills.
