What is SAGE
Everyone agrees almost unanimously that schools kill the creativity of youth and do not deliver the necessary 21st century skills. We built SAGE as a solution to provide efficient skills as well as updated mindset training to youth between the ages of 14-25.
At SAGE we use our decades long Entrepreneurship and Innovation Education expertise into action and help youth to raise up to the challenges of the everchanging business environment and grow into being economically independent and socially responsible leaders, creators, innovators, entrepreneurial doer and thinkers.
ACCELERATED LEARNING
In just a few short lessons, students will engage with critical aspects of entrepreneurship and innovation, such as design thinking, team building, and story telling.
ONLINE & ACCESSIBLE
With our online asynchronous program and our live sessions, SAGE is accessible from any internet connection, at anytime.
HOLISTIC APPROACH
From beginning to end, SAGE supports students’ learning about entrepreneurship and innovation live with mentors, real-world examples, and training.
GLOBAL CERTIFICATION
Students completing the course will get a certification from Estonian based YellowX and from Berkeley, California based Innovation Acceleration Group for an additional fee.
