Education Through Skills and Perspectives (ESP)
Education through Skills and Perspective – it’s a bold, new perspective on education, and it’s a real-world, even other-worldly, way to learn that’s relevant, rewarding, flexible, and fun.

How you understand the world depends on the perspective you take. And ESP is designed to put learning in context and give you the broad understanding and deep knowledge required to make discoveries on your own. It’s also about developing skills that let you put knowledge to work in your career and life.

Here are the lists of skills and perspectives in the program. Put them together, and you have ESP.
