1. LEARN ABOUT YOURSELF
New environments will broaden your perspective and different skills will be nurtured.
2. TAKE YOUR DESTINY INTO YOUR OWN HANDS
After years of structured education, an Explo is tailor-made to suit the challenges and experiences that you want to pursue.
3. DEVELOP YOUR INTERESTS
Immerse yourself in a project that is close to your heart and explore a sense of your own identity. Faced with a myriad of choices, dabble in a few to see what excites you.
4. SAMPLE THE BIGGER, WIDER WORLD
Broaden your horizons by actively exploring the world.
5. ADD SKILLS TO YOUR TOOLBOX
Widen your portfolio of abilities for a challenging and competitive marketplace. Use the opportunity, in a reassuring environment, to explore your team competence.
6. DIFFERENTIATE YOURSELF
In a world of talented candidates, unusual experiences are eye-catching to future interviewers and give you the opportunity to discuss what you have learnt, and the skills you can bring forward from your Explo.
7. GAIN PERSPECTIVE
Away from an established peer group routine habits often fade away and you enrich your life with friendships from around the world.
8. CONTRIBUTE
Helping a good cause is a very rewarding experience.
9. REKINDLE YOUR DESIRE TO LEARN
A change is as good as a rest: on returning to education after a break most students prove to be more motivated and focused than those who have not taken constructive time away from study.
10. EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
Essential to a well-balanced life and more likely to be developed through active achievements and experiencing cultural diversity.
