The program gives students a sampling of different career possibilities to discover their abilities and talents, and explore the career paths that best fit them.

A typical week includes well-supervised enrichment and academic workshops, indoor swimming and outdoor activities using University facilities, and a weekly field trip. Working parents often select this program to place their children in a safe, well-managed environment where both academic and recreational activities are offered.
