Business Description

Our Purpose
Our purpose is to empower students and organizations to reach their full potential and become mental health leaders, ultimately contributing to the betterment of our society.

Innovative Approach to Learning
We recognize the limitations of traditional clinical training and place immense value on the voices of service users, whom we proudly call Experts by Experience (EBE). These EBEs work hand-in-hand with experienced clinicians to offer a unique and invaluable learning opportunity.

Simulation-Based Learning with Experts by Experience
Our approach is rooted in Kolb’s (1984) experiential learning theory, which posits that learning is most impactful when it occurs through concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. We utilize simulation-based learning to provide focused experiential learning experiences, highlighting the significance of integrating theory and practice.
