The PreVenture Process

Sign Up

The first step is to sign up and participate in a short survey. This will identify if PreVenture is the right program for you.

Qualify

If selected, you’ll be notified in person by either a program facilitator or a staff member at school.

Take Part

Two 90-minute personality specific workshops will take place at least one week apart. You’ll receive a workbook to guide you through them.

About the Personality Survey

Before taking part in the workshops, you’ll complete a survey to help you better understand your own personality. All of the questions are answered on a scale of 1-4, showing whether you agree or disagree.

About the Workshops

The two 90-minute workshops are entirely voluntary and confidential. You’ll talk about your long-term goals and see if your everyday actions and decisions will help you to achieve them. The workshops will come with a workbook to help you take away what you learned during the program.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my friends know?

No other students, except those in your workgroup, will know about your participation. During the workshops, everyone will be expected to agree to a confidentiality agreement to ensure everything said in the workshops stays there.

Do I have to take part in school?

PreVenture may be provided outside the school setting. This is dependent on the availability of the program within your community.

Do my parents have to know?

Those under the age of 18 will require parental consent unless otherwise permitted under local law. Please check with your participating organization or school for clarity on the issue of program consent.

How long is the PreVenture program?

The program consists of two 90-minute workshops. Your facilitator will decide how far apart they are spaced, but there will be at least one week in between.
