THE BIG PICTURE

An education students can put into practice.

Academic knowledge and practical ability belong together. Edutimate works with secondary schools to introduce vocational and technical learning that helps students discover their interests and develop useful competencies.

At the centre of the programme is the Skill Acquisition Logbook: a personal record of activities, projects, and progress. It helps students build a portfolio while giving teachers a clear way to monitor, assess, and guide their development.
