Here at ENTITY, We Believe in the Power of Innovation
There was no way we could capture the essence of the ENTITY community solely through Learning Management Systems. Therefore, we developed something much more our speed in partnership with VirBELA — the future of education is happening right here on ENTITY’s Virtual Campus!
ENTITY’s Virtual Campus gives you an opportunity to interact with your fellow classmates and mentors in 3D virtual reality. This was created by #WomenThatDo, for #WomenThatDo.
Each room and area on the campus is designed to accommodate our innovative 4-pillar education methodology of hard skills, soft skills, mentorship, and career readiness. We aim to make education fun, engaging, and interactive. And this is how we’re doing it.
Welcome to the
Virtual Campus!
Customize Your Avatar
You’ll never have to worry about dressing up for a Zoom meeting again! When you create your own custom avatar, you build your online identity. Using the different outfit styles and colors, you can make sure that your avatar matches your vibrant personality!
We found that with other Learning Management Systems, there is a feeling of detachment from the course. By creating an avatar and physically walking around the space, it creates a sense of community and makes our students feel engaged.
Attend Live Speaker Sessions in the Auditorium
Our auditorium will be home to our Virtual Speaker Series. Guests from our Mentor Network will conduct presentations, lead workshops, and host Q&A discussions from the stage.
You will meet CEOs, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists documentary filmmakers, philanthropists, and thought leaders from various industries and get the scoop on how they worked their way to the top!
Develop Hard Skills in the Classroom
It’s time to finally get back into the classroom! These spaces are perfect for working on individual or group projects. If you’re looking for 1:1 assistance, it is also the location where instructors and mentors will hold office hours.
Multiple groups can meet in this room thanks to its “private volume” areas where the people inside can only hear each other and won't be distracted by other groups, creating a focused workspace.
Casual Meeting Areas for Building Soft Skills
Some areas of the campus are a little cozier than others and are perfect for meeting in smaller groups. Every ENTITY cohort is broken up into peer mentor groups to develop communication and collaboration skills.
These tight-knit groups provide a more personal, high-touch experience and a strong sense of community between the students and their mentors.
Social Hotspots To Hang Out With Your Peers
“All work and no play” has never quite been ENTITY’s style. We will be having virtual coffees and happy hours at places like the beach. Or, if you need to de-stress and take a break, you can ride around in the boat or you could go down to our soccer fields and kick the ball around with your friends!
These spots on the campus were designed to add a little bit of joy to your day. While having fun isn’t on the lesson plan, it’s still very important to your education!
Join Us on Our Campus!
