Your skills as a gamer are a passport to your career success — the Game Academy Bootcamp

Want to know more about the power of your game skills? Skill up for a new career by playing games?

Registration closes on September 10th for our unique Game Academy bootcamp that’s dedicated to the personal and career development of gamers.

The two-week programme includes analysis of your gaming profile like you’ve never had before, in-game and real-life challenges and a series of workshops with gamers who’ve brought their game skills to bear upon a very successful career in business and public life — from the creative direction of a games company to the foundation of a cloud computing company to running successful military and intelligence campaigns.

You can sign up for the Bootcamp until September 10th, when the course begins. https://gameacademy.co/
