Vancouver Summer Camp 2020: Introducing VGC’s New Young Executive Program

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Every year VGC International College hosts teenagers from all over the world who come to Vancouver to learn English, make friends and experience Canadian culture. Our High School Preparation / Summer Teen Experience has been an ever popular option for students from all backgrounds to learn English in Canada in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. 

This summer we are very proud to add a new option for young adults in partnership with our School of International Business: VGC’s Young Executive Program. This business summer camp for teenagers in Vancouver is the perfect program for aspiring entrepreneurs, marketers and the leaders of tomorrow, as it combines practical lectures, applied academic activities and  the popular leisure activities of our Summer Teen Experience Program, including our legendary trip to the Rocky Mountains. 

VGC’s offers the following 3 modules and has adapted the key elements of the adult courses to the youth program: 

  • Leadership: Students will learn about different leadership styles and which style suits their personality. They will learn to develop and apply their leadership skills and will gain life skills for success.
  • Entrepreneurship: It’s never too early to develop entrepreneurial abilities! Students will learn about the key elements to create a successful business, work together to develop a new business and will learn more about frameworks that can be applied in a rapidly changing world.
  • Marketing through Social Media: Students will use familiar social media tools to come up with new strategies on how to generate branding and traffic for businesses.
