How organisations can partner
Three ways to create learning opportunities.
The primary learners are children and young people. Your organisation is the program partner or sponsoring customer, while employees and parents are the families who may access the agreed offering.
Employee-family holiday programs
Make school holidays an opportunity to discover and create.
An agreed holiday program for employees’ children may be delivered in person or live online.
Explore Holiday ProgramsPossible program options
- Hands-on summer workshops
- Online coding and AI courses
- An approved combination of Forge programs
We work with your organisation to shape an age-appropriate educational experience, agreeing on the program, location, schedule and delivery arrangements together.
Workplace family learning events
Bring your workplace community together through learning.
An age-appropriate workshop or learning experience may be organised for employees’ families.
