The XL coaching sessions
This Learning Lab builds on the direct interaction between pre-vocational students and various creative professionals such as Musicians, Photographers, Bike Designers, Tattoo Artists and others. The hub hosts online coaching sessions, streamed from a glass house on their premises, the heart of its creative workspace. Students and entrepreneurs go through a speed-dating process, exchanging stories and, ultimately, matching students with an entrepreneur of their choice.
Format: Online studio sessions. The creative entrepreneurs are located at the hub, each connecting virtually with a small group of students. In a co-designing process, the group develops a co-creation relating to the entrepreneur's profession. Simultaneously this offers an opportunity for in-depth exchange touching upon life choices that led to becoming a creative entrepreneur. The entire process is being filmed, resulting in a professional documentary.
