Organization Details
OWN Academy is an educational event management company developing young talent through work-based learning and structured career exploration. By collaborating with schools and transforming industry professionals into educators, we connect students to real-world experiences that equip them to solve problems, understand their purpose, and drive positive impact.
Impact Story
Our vision is to create a world where interconnected problems are met with human-centric solutions, and where every individual recognizes their vital role within this dynamic system. Through the power of education, we aspire to build a more equitable and collaborative society where educators and employers work together to help learners fulfill their true potential and create positive change. Together, we can connect the dots and transform the world into one big classroom where everyone is a purposeful problem solver making a difference in their own unique way.
Our mission is to reengineer education by shifting the focus from routinary academic learning to meaningful real-world experiences.
Leveraging the power of collaboration, we are building the One World Network (OWN) which brings together educational institutions, companies, professionals, and youth organizations committed to investing in the next generation. This global community bridges the gap between the classroom and the workplace by transforming employers into educators, and enabling educators to activate real-world experiences through employers.
We will support every learner within the One World Network as they earn their OWN Degree, the world’s first real-world experience degree. Created to address the issue of quality education being costly and exclusive, the OWN Degree provides equal opportunities for learners from diverse backgrounds to fulfill their potential.
