About Us
In 2018, a local elementary school reached out to Enactus Fleming College to find ways to increase student engagement and reduce absenteeism. Project United was formed and with elementary school teacher consultation, a series of learning modules were developed. We called these modules a “Treasure Chest” to reflect the creative and diverse characteristics of the learning objectives. However, COVID-19 halted the project’s momentum. It was time to rethink our approach.
Project United team is continuously developing new online and face-to-face modules to support teachers and students. Our focus is on empowering students with essential life skills and helping them explore career opportunities through a combination of in-person and online learning modules, workshops, simulations, games and quiz-shows.
Skill development and training topics, activities and workshops include:
- Financial Literacy
- How to Finance your College Education
