New courses available at Spark School

We always try to stay up to date with the latest trends and developments that arise in the Educational Industry. Whether that means adopting future-ready teaching methods or creating flexible learning opportunities, the goal is always to offer a future-ready perspective to our students. So that is why we are offering new courses starting September 2023!

Since we live in a society that’s forever changing, we also place great emphasis on what our students learn, not just how they learn. Diversity is the key to everything, so the more options students have, the more chances to find and study what they really like.

If we are to take a look at the traditional schooling system and its values, most of the emphasis is placed on primary subjects that are usually mandatory for everyone. Subjects like these are for example maths, literature, biology, chemistry, etc. However, since the time when the only (subjectively of course) successful careers were that of a doctor or a teacher, the job market has suffered significant changes and new careers have emerged that we didn’t even dream of 20 years ago.

As our goal is for our students to succeed, we want to make sure that they have access to all the knowledge they ever dreamt about. So whether they want to be architects or fashion designers, or even influencers, we got them, and we want to offer them all the support they need.

Course details

Accounting

Accounting is a skill that can benefit students both in their personal lives and in their future careers. So whether you’re managing your own finances or pursuing a career in business,
understanding the principles of accounting can help you make informed decisions and achieve your goals.

Travel & Tourism

Travel & Tourism is a fascinating field that offers endless opportunities to explore new cultures, meet new people, and experience the world in a unique way. As the world becomes more connected and travel continues to grow in popularity, the demand for skilled professionals in this field is on the rise.

Digital Media & Design

In today’s digital age, creating and sharing content online has become an important part of how we communicate and connect with each other. Thus, whether you’re interested in graphic design, video production, or social media marketing, having a strong foundation in digital media and design is essential for anyone looking to succeed in the modern workforce.

Law

The law is an important part of our society, and understanding how it works can open up a range of career opportunities, from becoming a lawyer or judge to working in law enforcement or government. With a strong foundation in legal concepts and processes, students can develop valuable skills in critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication that can be useful in many fields.

Information Technology

Students develop an understanding of the implications of technology in society and the ways Information Technology can help at home, work and the wider world. Through practical and theoretical studies, students solve problems using a variety of common software such as word processors and interactive presentation software.

Global Perspectives and Research

In today’s interconnected world, it’s more important than ever to understand the diverse perspectives and experiences of people from different cultures and backgrounds. So, the Global Perspectives and Research course provides students with the opportunity to explore and analyze global issues, develop their research skills, and gain a deeper understanding of the world around them.
