program highlights

Every Ycenter program is experiential in nature. Our core principles are inspired by people learning by doing and most importantly - staying curious.

Downloadable Toolkit

With our years of experience in solving complex problems and facilitating workshops, we always think about what happens when you need to adapt Ycenter learning for other projects and situations. So we have developed downloadable toolkits for you to keep forever. It’s available when you become a member.

Project-based learning

Learn by doing is a classic way to acquire important skills. Our live workshops or self-paced programs, they all offer you to take your learning beyond classrooms.Design a mock-up website over a weekend. Create a business model. Prepare your elevator pitch and get feedback.

Access to expert mentors

Mentorship is more valuable to help you navigate complex situations. A mix of expertise and experience is what mentors bring to the table. Our mentors are business leaders from Amazon, UN, governmental agencies, startup entrepreneurs, professors and people who believe in helping others.

Membership for our Global Community

Our participants like to stay connected and keep learning from each other. So we built a curated community on SLACK of our alumni, mentors and partners. Find your next co-founder, web developer, marketing help or just awesome book and movie recommendations from others.

Live Masterclass sessions

Watching recorded videos could be less inspiring especially when you are looking to solve global problems. So all our programs offer LIVE masterclasses to help you interact with our facilitators in real time. Online learning doesn’t have to be about screen staring, it can also be about sharing.

Certification for your skills

For most of our programs, we offer you Certificate of Completion and Certificate of Merit in case of exceptional projects that you build while learning. A certified course in Design Thinking can help you improve your chances of landing your dream job or starting your next big venture.
