Infinite Spur was founded as a way to respond to the current educational demands that call for an innovative approach of teaching and learning in an international setting by fostering new forms of dialogue between the arts and technology, leadership and entrepreneurship.
Our programs are designed for students who are ready to take on new challenges, who are ready to participate in dynamic and intensive educational abroad experience where, in addition to learning about the culture and the people, they will gain the necessary personal and professional skills that will empower them to design their own professional future.
Talking of Infinite Spur is referring to one of the world´s greatest Alpine challenges. The beautiful and apparently harmless icy ridge that leads to the Summit of Mount Foraker in Alaska is, however, one of the most impregnable, deceiving and challenging walls only conquered by a few experts mountaineers. The conquest of this mythical summit takes personal determination, commitment, endurance and team work. Surmounting the top is an extraordinary task and a great satisfaction. For those few who have made it, their live has never been the same.
Our dreams are somehow similar; apparently innocent but most unconquerable. To accomplish our dreams we need determination, commitment, trust, strength and persistence. Only those who are willing to strive, to commit, to continue working towards their goals despite the difficulties, will be able to achieve them.
You can be one of them.
To provide students with knowledge and professional and inter-cultural skills to successfully achieve their goals and dreams through immersive international EDUCATIONAL experiences FOCUSED on leadership, entrepreneurship, arts, technology and design
Our programs integrate technology and design with the study of the arts, history and culture of Spain in the contemporary European context. The technological approach to the humanities and to the cultural heritage of Spain is designed to maximize learning by taking advantage of students’ familiarity and understanding of digital technologies.
Courses offer participants an international pre-professional immersion experience in different fields of the arts, technology and design to explore their future professional careers paths. We believe it is crucial to support students by empowering them as leaders and entrepreneurs.
Courses will take place in January, May, June and July.
Course sites: Madrid, Barcelona and Malaga.
