What makes a workshop a banger
Six things every Alpha workshop is built to hit. Use them as a gut check on your idea.
BuzzworthyKids talk about it before it starts and after it ends.
AgencyStudents make the calls and do the work. Adults coach.
Normed + Nationally NoteworthyMeasured against a real outside standard, not a classroom rubric.
Grounded in a Life SkillOne life skill, named up front, that the whole workshop builds.
ExcellenceThe bar is high and specific. Good enough isn't.
Real-WorldA real audience, real judges and a result that exists outside school.
Ideas go to the Alpha NYC team. We read every one. We won't contact anyone you name without checking with you first, and nothing here is a commitment to run a program.
