AOD presents Fast Track Design Foundation Programme for Post O/L students
View(s):The competition for the best career opportunities no longer lies only in qualifications.
Instead, employers are searching for the kind of professional who thinks beyond the average, and is able to come up with out-of-the-box ideas no matter what the business sector is. This means that modern career opportunities are for those who make use of their imagination and creativity leading to lateral thinking.
Where usual prep courses fall short of nurturing the mental space for such thinking, AOD presents its Fast Track Design Foundation Course—an educational experience created around a tried-and-tested curriculum and internationally rounded exposure that allows students to evolve into creative, inspired young people with a well-rounded perspective.
AOD’s Fast Track Design Foundation Programme is not your usual university preparatory course. It’s one of the most futuristic and industry-savvy ones out there that truly incorporate the kind of learning that is needed for the work cultures of tomorrow.
It is a course that uses creative thinking and its permeating relevance to all business sectors, industries and professions across the board as its fundamental core. From here, the Fast Track Design Foundation Programme leads students to understand the essentials of ideating, creative collaboration and research as well as basics of communication going from idea visualization to idea presentation. This prepares them to take on leadership positions confidently, and set on the path to become creative professionals whether in management or design.
Connecting students to people who use creativity as a central part of their work has helped the course to help young people understand why and how design thinking matters. Thinking creative, thinking design is what it is all about today. It’s really the root of innovation.
And businesses want the kind of professionals who can think innovatively whether they’re managers or designers. This programme is really about instilling this understanding of how innovation works, at a early stage in their development as young adults.
One of the key advantages of the programme is also discovering what you are passionate about. Your pathways could change; you will discover many opportunities to enhance your skills, what your strengths are, and most importantly, where your heart lies.
This is important. A designer needs passion, and you will discover how to ignite it when you meet senior students and lecturers, see past and ongoing projects, and learn more about the course.

This direct exposure plays a major part in preparing students to become well-rounded young people who have an essential understanding of how thinking outside the box can be applied to any kind of business, brand, product or service.
With this knowledge as the base, they’re able to take on the future with exactly the kind of thinking that is needed.
