Life Skills, Leadership, Anthropolgy
Along with travel, G.O.A.L.S. Inc. desires to introduce our youth to skills that are valuable for living prosperous lives. Time management, finance, entreprenuership, social emotional interaction, & career building are just a few of the many courses we offer through our Life/Leadership classes. We also take part in foreign language and cultural studies. Prior to visiting a country, our goal is to equip our students with a basic understanding of the cultural and linguistic background for that region. 43 percent of the world is bilingual. Bilingualism not only has positive cognitive effects but it also provides a higher pay grade in a plethora of career fields.
