The Being Built Experience

Five questions every student should be able to answer.

Who am I?

Students build grounded self-awareness — their strengths, blind spots, learning style, and God-given design.

What am I good at?

They identify how they learn, hear, and process information so they can capitalize on strengths and address challenges.

How do I relate to others?

Communication skills, emotional intelligence, and practical habits for conflict resolution at home, school, and work.

Where could I thrive?

A window into the environments and occupations where students with their unique profile are most likely to flourish.

What should I do next?

Clearer direction for college, career, relationships, and the future — with practical next steps they can act on now.

Development Pillars

How Being Built develops the whole student.

Inside the Being Built experience, growth is organized around three pillars — improving I.Q., strengthening E.Q., and developing C.Q.

I.Q.

Intelligence Quotient

Tools that help each student identify their learning style and cognitive processing style, so they can create optimal environments for absorbing and applying new information.

E.Q.

Emotional Quotient

Insight into communication strengths and challenges, motivators, and fears — with practical skills for engaging people whose preferences are different from their own.

C.Q.

Career Quotient

Our own term for the unique blend of a student's I.Q. and E.Q. combined with historical data of similar profiles — a window into the occupations they are most likely to thrive in.

Assessments & Workshops

Tools used in the Being Built experience.

Assessments and workshops are the instruments we use — not the product itself. They serve the bigger goal: students who know who they are and where they're going.

01

Personal Assessments

Our workshops provide personal assessments designed specifically for high-schoolers — revealing how they learn, hear, and process information while identifying strengths and challenges.

02

DISC Coaching

We incorporate assessment feedback together with DISC to help students develop strategies to maximize their current position and navigate the gap between where they are and where they want to be.

03

Career Development Guidance

Direction for current high-school engagement and clarity for what comes next — college, trade school, or the workforce.
