If you’re reading this, it’s because you want to take your Challenge mindset approach to the next level to help more students explore the world of work purposefully and confidently advise them in their search for paths to meaningful work.
When students are stuck, it’s often because they don’t know where to start. The Challenge mindset gives you a structured, engaging way to help them cut through confusion and find direction faster - grounded in purpose and possibility.
The Challenge Mindset Certification is designed to give you the tools, strategies, and coaching you need to do that.
The program’s total time commitment is approximately 8 hours of live coaching over Zoom and 6 hours of independent work between sessions, for 14 hours of work total.

Coach students toward clarity
Many students complete the Challenge Cards but aren’t sure what to do next. You’ll learn how to lead powerful, meaning-making conversations that help them choose a direction and take motivated next steps.

Design tangible, motivating action plans
It’s hard to help students move forward when they don’t follow through. You’ll learn how to co-create action steps that are small, achievable, and aligned with their current realities.

Scale the Challenge Mindset Across Campus
You want more students to benefit, but time and reach are limited. You’ll learn how to integrate the Challenge mindset into programs, workshops, and peer-led initiatives across your institution.
