Bespoke programs for your school
The old study skills day is dead! Elevate runs short-sharp workshops spaced strategically across the year. Each session is tailored to the needs of your students, ensuring that it is highly relevant to your school. By spacing sessions across the year, schools ensure that students are introduced to skills at the time when they are most likely to use them.

Young presenters students can relate to
Avoid your study skills programs becoming a bore! Elevate uses young presenters who have recently faced and aced high school. Speaking the students’ language, they can engage the students on their level, and by drawing on their own personal stories and experiences, they give the skills an unmatchable immediacy.

Post Seminar Resources
Ensure that your study skills program is more than a one-off. Elevate realises that study skills, like any other set of skills, are built through repetition and review. As such, Elevate provides schools with a range of resources that teachers can use to follow-up in the classroom and ensure that students use Elevate’s skills consistently enough that they become habit.

Digital Resources
Every student can connect with Elevate’s online learning community, where they can access a range of resources that they will actually use! This includes practice questions, exam walk-through videos, study and subject tips from former top students, exam preparation courses and more.

Parent & Staff Training
Make sure the study skills message is integrated into the school community! Elevate’s staff seminars ensure that your school’s teaching staff are aware of the skills that have been covered with their students, as well as global best practice for reinforcing each skill in the classroom. Elevate’s parent seminars provide your parent body with the ability to effectively assist their children without crossing the line and becoming the enemy.

Accountable, Researched, Measurable
Make sure you actually get results and return on investment! Elevate uses a system called Results Tracker to measure the level of behavioural change achieved by each program. This data is compiled into a report that clearly documents the degree to which students have adopted and used each skill from the seminar, so that you can ensure you are getting value for money.
