What does the SkillBuilder Workshop offer?
The goal of SkillBuilder is to help students acquire key skills that are rarely addressed by traditional school curricula, yet play a decisive role in success in higher education, career choice, and navigating the world of work. The sessions are conducted in English, meaning that in addition to developing argumentation, communication, and presentation skills, the program also supports the confident, active use of the English language. Furthermore, emphasis is placed on developing self-awareness and stress management, which are particularly important in exam situations, public speaking, and job interviews. SkillBuilder places special focus on ensuring that students use modern tools consciously and responsibly. As part of the program, students are introduced to the foundations and practical application of artificial intelligence (AI): learning how AI can be used for preparation, learning, and decision support, while maintaining independent thinking, critical evaluation, and the central role of human judgment.
The program develops
- clear and confident communication,
- presentation and public speaking skills,
- critical thinking and argumentation,
- self-awareness and stress management,
- structured preparation for job interviews, admissions processes, and new life situations,
- responsible use of AI as a learning and preparation tool,
- and confident, active use of the English language.
The sessions take place in a safe, supportive environment, where students can practice and develop at their own pace, without pressure, across different levels of English. Participation requires a level of English that allows students to understand instructions and actively engage in the tasks. Uncertainty is not a problem — language development is continuously supported throughout the program and is a natural part of the shared work.
