Cohorts of Small live cohort
Live, mentor-led sessions - worked problems and real output, not lectures.
High school students build critical leadership and business skills with Harvard Business Impact faculty member Dr Jojo O'Driscoll-Kearney. Every session is live and mentor-led, with discussion instead of lecture.
Across 3 days, students produce work rather than notes - cases, drafts, builds or analyses depending on the programme.
Cohorts are kept small so mentors know each student by name and push them at the right level.
A final project or presentation your child can put in front of a university, a school or you.
Named, practised skills - grouped the way universities read them, tied to how each is used in this programme.
How your child breaks a problem down before touching it.
Practised on live problems in every session - never taught as theory.
Mentors make your child justify each step out loud before moving on.
Writing and speaking so an adult expert takes them seriously.
Rehearsed in front of a mentor and peers, then corrected on the spot.
The hands-on craft that turns an idea into a finished artefact.
Used directly on the work your child hands in across 3 days.
Learnt by building the real artefact, not by following a tutorial.
Refined through revision rounds until the output is portfolio-ready.
Deadlines, teams, feedback - the habits universities and employers notice.
Built through real deadlines and written mentor feedback.
Sample briefs from recent cohorts - the actual work that comes out of the programme, not a syllabus.

Final sessionBuilder evidence: something that runs, with a repo and a demo behind it. By the end of Leadership & Entrepreneurship Accelerator Program taught by Dr. Jojo at United School International, Doha, the aim is simple: a working prototype, a public repo and a two-minute demo video.
The point isn't the certificate. It's the line a family can honestly write afterwards - and the artefact sitting behind it.
"My child is interested in ai, technology & entrepreneurship."
Nothing an admissions officer can check.
"My child completed Leadership & Entrepreneurship Accelerator Program taught by Dr. Jojo at United School International, Doha and finished a short project or presentation to close the programme."
A line with an artefact behind it.
Exploration, cheaply and quickly. Short live programmes let a child test a field over a couple of weekends before committing months to it - and they are the natural first step in Grades 5–8.
