Taster Sessions

In order to aid with the promotion of the programme, we have developed 3 taster sessions prior to the full programme's commencement. These sessions are designed to give potential participants a flavour of the content and methodology employed in the full Ignyte programme.

Session details:

1. "Creative Problem Solving" (18th September, 10am - 1pm)

2. "Idea Generation" (25th September, 10am - 1pm)

3. "Social Media Tips and Tricks" (2nd October, 10am - 1pm)

Each participant is allowed to attend as many sessions as they like.

Mentoring

As part of each project, each participant will be assigned a mentor. These mentors will be arranged by the Mill and will offer 1 to 1 advice and guidance for each participant.
