The document discusses experiential learning and its benefits over conventional teaching methods. It notes that only 23-25% of management graduates are employable due to a focus on theoretical study rather than practical skills. Experiential learning involves learning through experience and reflection. A 3-day off-site experiential learning program is proposed that focuses on self-confidence, teamwork, and survival skills through activities in nature. This aims to develop skills like leadership, communication, and problem solving to increase student employability. The program is conducted by an experiential learning company that specializes in outdoor education and community involvement.
