In addition to some specialized learning facilities of the IVE & HKDI, students studying in the Youth College (International) are provided with dedicated classrooms, workshops, laboratories and learning commons. They are taught by professional teaching staff with years of experience working and teaching in the related fields.
With a view to nurturing students to be lifelong learners, active professionals, global citizens and confident team players, the three Vocational Baccalaureate programmes are designed with worldwide recognized qualifications, such as the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) examinations and Business & Technology Education Council (BTEC) Diploma / Extended Diploma. Through the provision of immersive English learning environment and adoption of project-based learning approach, students will be fully engaged in class activities and developed as valuable members of the society who demonstrate self-management, confidence and responsibility.
