Think Global, Act Local
During my time at NetWings, I became empowered to travel around the world with a purpose of attending global conferences and events and implementing what I had newly learned to address local issues in my community.
Upskilling
During my time at NetWings, I learned that upskilling is equally important to youth. Through an enhanced curriculum, I learned how to build my skills in a way that aligns with changing employer needs and an increasingly technology centered workforce.
Perspective
During my time at NetWings, I developed an empathy and global perspective related to a plethora of social, economic, and cultural topics. This perspective has empowered me as a global citizen.
Case Studies
During my time at NetWings, I had the opportunity to develop a Case Study from start to finish. Written by students for students, our Cases are a friendly and interactive way to break down complex information in a way that youth can feel comfortable engaging in.
Cross Cultural Exchange
During my time at NetWings, I engaged daily in 1:1 cross cultural exchange experiences with people from all over the world, speaking various languages, with different beliefs, working in varying sectors. This has prepared me with the emotional intelligence and cultural competencies to lead within an increasingly multifaceted workforce.
Social Capital
At NetWings, our horizons expand overnight by learning the importance of cultivating social capital through newly developed global friendships and opportunities.
Innovation
During my time at NetWings, I was exposed to global innovation ranging in topics from the Black Market of the USD in Argentina to the Syrian Refugee Crisis in Germany to the use of technology to bridge the Israeli Palestinian conflict. Serving as a strategist for these topics has been an incredible experience to leverage for my internships.
