What is Vitademia?
Vitademia is a concept project, an online academy enabling students of life to learn fundamental skills and wisdom for personal development, guided by coaches and mentors rich in life experiences.
What is the current stage of this project?
We are currently in our first steps of developing this project and will be undergoing a pilot in the next few months. This is to say a trial or test to see whether this concept will actually work.
Objective of the project
We aim to develop a library of e-learning courses that tackle some of life's most difficult challenges. Learners can "study" these courses at their own time online, whilst being guided by a team of dedicated coaches and mentors who specialise in the given subject. Coaching and mentoring sessions will take place online using video conferencing tools such as Skype, Google Hangouts or Zoom.
Requirements:
retired (or near retirement)
a good listener
experienced in career counselling
competent in using a computer (emails, video calls)
able to commit 1-2 hours to review course material
able to commit 1 hour for a live online coaching session
willing to become a collaborator and provide valuable feedback
connected to reliable internet

Description
A cloud academy enabling students of life to learn fundamental life skills and wisdom, guided by coaches and mentors rich in life experiences.
In March 2020, I came up with the idea to empower retirees by enabling them to act as life coaches and mentors to their younger peers, who are seeking for answers to help them grow and overcome life challenges.
