Overview

You can be interested in technology without knowing which kind of work would suit you. This program introduces careers through the work itself: the questions people ask, the decisions they make and the ways they depend on one another.

One project, different ways to contribute

A campus activities app gives the workshops a common thread. You explore user needs, product decisions, interface design, development and other parts of the project. That shared experience helps you compare roles through their actual tasks and responsibilities.

You try activities, reflect on what holds your attention and explain your choices. You then build a personal learning roadmap grounded in what you have experienced.

Workshops that move your work forward

Workshops with Joseph Kanon take place fully online, live. The format includes a shared workshop, a scheduled review for each pod and practice between sessions. Two pods of up to three participants accommodate a maximum of six people.

This program is for students from Grade 11 or equivalent in any school system through university.

The program is in preparation. Session dates will be announced before enrollment opens.

What you’ll learn

  • Explain how technology roles work together.
  • Try different responsibilities on a shared project.
  • Connect your interests with tasks you have experienced.
  • Choose and plan your next learning step.

Before you start

  • Curiosity about technology; no programming experience required
