How to be Part of it ?
You can choose either an Integrated or Modular Approach
Integrated Approach
For TACs that want to do the complete STAR Program
We can pilot 1 round with your members
For you to do a Program Evaluation
Modular Approach
For TACs that want to do certain Modules for their members
We can have a discussion to work out
What is suitable for your members
Integrated Approach
We highly recommend this for Maximum Impact using the STAR Framework
We can do it for 1 batch of your members so that you can do a Program Evaluation
> Practically, this means we can do 1 x Networking / Outreach event with your members and share about the SME Challenge.
> They can then decide if they want to enroll. We can do a pilot group of up to 30 SMEs for the STAR SME Program.
> You can do a program evaluation for this group. When all goes well, you can extend it to your other members.
> Even for the SME Challenge, the participants can also pick and choose what modules they want to work on =)
So in this sense, it is no different from the Modular Approach except that the participants choose what they want instead of the TAC
