Facilitated group learning
At this level participants will learn by reflecting on the applicability of their skills and knowledge. With a trainer, participants will participate in lively classroom discussions on how to make their classroom experience relevant in the real world and how the proposed solutions can solve global problems or help them achieve their mission

Individuals
We recognize that not all participants work in the same way. In order for the participant to be as effective as possible in mastering the concepts, CAGP will create a space where participants will take ownership of their learning. Using the CAGP online platform, they will take courses and work on assigned projects at their own pace and time.

Discovery
Part of learning for a specific purpose is to know what skills are needed to achieve your mission. Through a series of fun and engaging activities, each of your core leadership courses gives you the opportunity to discover important gaps in your skills that you are working to develop at CAGP.

The reason for the project
Africa's greatest need is ethical and entrepreneurial leadership. Too often, we only invest in fighting the symptoms of a lack of leadership in Africa: we give blankets, food and medicine to people affected by war, poverty and famine. But these efforts will never stop if we do not train leaders who prevent wars, entrepreneurs who create jobs and innovators who find lasting solutions to the root causes of Africa's problems. Our goal is to develop the future Nelson Mandela and the African Bill Gates.
