Stand out from the crowd: sharpen your skills with Key 5!

The Masood Entrepreneurship Centre (MEC) is excited to launch an innovative microlearning suite, ‘Key 5', delivering entrepreneurial skills for all settings in an interactive, flexible, no-risk environment.

"Entrepreneurship" may sound like something only future business founders need to care about, but entrepreneurial skills aren’t just for launching companies. They can help you navigate any job and stand out from the crowd.

That’s why Masood Entrepreneurship Centre (MEC) created ‘Key 5’—a new flexible, interactive learning experience designed to equip students with essential entrepreneurial skills for any career path, whether you're interested in starting your own business or excelling within an organisation.

Key 5 delivers valuable, real-world skills in an interactive and flexible format. Even if you don’t yet know the career you want, you’ll gain skills you can use right now - from acing your next interview to leading group projects like a boss. 

 

What is ‘Key 5’?

Key 5 is an innovative microlearning suite - five bite-sized modules you can finish in just 10-15 minutes each:

  • Effective and Powerful Communication: Learn how to express ideas clearly and persuasively.
  • Networking: Discover how to build connections that can open doors to new opportunities.
  • Market Awareness: Understand the environment you’re operating in and how to respond to it.
  • Opportunity Recognition: Develop the ability to spot potential and act on it.
  • Building Confidence: Strengthen your ability to lead, present, and excel in group settings.

 

What Makes It Fun?

What sets Key 5 apart is its scenario-based learning design. You'll engage in dynamic, interactive challenges - negotiating with aliens, slaying dragons, and inventing world-changing products in a futuristic multiverse – all while boosting your skills.

 

Learn in Your Own Time, No Pressure

You can do it all on your own schedule, wherever you are. Do you have 15 minutes between lectures? Perhaps you’re waiting for the bus? You can access Key 5 anywhere, anytime, on any device. And it’s risk-free – no need to worry about assessments or grades, learn without pressure.

 

Who Should Try It?

Whether you are new to entrepreneurship or a seasoned pro, Key 5 will help you sharpen your skills, but we expect first- and second-year undergraduates will benefit most.
