About The Knowledge Society (TKS)

Training the next generation of innovators to impact billions. In TKS, students are exposed to emerging STEM fields that are shaping the future of our world. Through knowledge sharing, building presentations, and working on real challenges with real companies, students will build a solid foundation for social impact entrepreneurship. Students in TKS are between the ages of 13-17. They are curious and ambitious teens who are passionate about changing the world. They are all students who are craving a community of like-minded people. Students are exposed to 40+ emerging technologies that are shaping the future of our world. Every student is encouraged to explore several areas of focus, so they can eventually find their true passion. Within their chosen focus areas, a student will build projects, write articles, and make videos that showcase their research and growing subject matter expertise. 
The goal? Develop passion and credibility. At TKS we focus on developing a growth mindset that encourages confidence, optimism, and independence. We help students build reliable mental models they can leverage when making difficult decisions. 
The goal? Build the mental stamina required to maintain drive and joyful fulfillment. There are 4 Areas of Personal Development at TKS: 1. Mindset: Students are intentional in developing and discussing their mindset every week. 2. Networks: Students learn how to build their own network of advisors to propel their success. 3. Confidence: Students complete discomfort challenges to gain confidence. 4. Wisdom: Students discover what drives them, so they can sustain their ambition into adulthood.
