Wyde, the Connective School, has announced three on-demand courses on its e-learning platform aimed at strengthening human skills that directly impact performance, relationships, and long-term growth. The courses—Arts Management for Social Impact, Emotional Intelligence, and The Practice of Feedback—combine clear frameworks with practical application, supporting participants with tools rooted in practice, reflection, and experimentation.
The Course in Arts Management for Social Impact focuses on designing cultural initiatives that generate measurable social value through strategic thinking and hands-on project skills. The program builds foundations in social impact frameworks, community and stakeholder mapping, and critical perspectives, then develops participatory practices and co-creation, exploring operational models of independent spaces and grassroots cultural centres, with an emphasis on education and mediation. It is designed for visual arts, curatorial practice, cultural centers, and NGOs, including rural and peripheral contexts. The course is led by Zoran Pantelić, an artist, producer and program editor at kuda.org, and founder of the Apsolutno collective. Delivered on demand (minimum 10 participants, up to 15), the course includes 12 modules and is priced at €1,400, with the first module free after registration. Participants access a faculty of 8 experts, 18 inspirational videos, 12 live sessions, and a broad set of learning materials, plus proof of attendance and a mentoring component to develop and validate projects. Tools and resources remain available for 12 months.
The Course in Emotional Intelligence addresses how work and life unfold in real conditions—through conversations, tensions, and decisions made in motion. The course positions emotional intelligence as the ability to understand and work with emotions to communicate with clarity, relate with empathy, navigate challenges, and ease tension when it arises. It offers a guided exploration of emotional intelligence: its foundations, evolution, and practical application in everyday work and life. The course is structured in 3 modules, available on demand, and priced at €100. The facilitator, Simona Gonella, brings experience as a director and playwright with a strong focus on emotions and teamwork, linking personal development to more effective and sustainable professional interactions.
The Course in the Practice of Feedback is an online course created to build the practical skills needed to give, receive, and use feedback effectively—so feedback becomes a lever for learning, trust, and performance rather than a source of tension. The course uses practical tools and real-life scenarios to help participants apply feedback in everyday work, improving collaboration, growth, and professional relationships. The training is offered on demand, includes 11 boosters released weekly to support consistent practice, and is priced at €100. The course is facilitated by Susan Ying, and is designed for anyone who wants a repeatable method to handle sensitive conversations with clarity, reduce misunderstandings, and turn feedback into a shared operational habit across teams.
These courses represent a growing recognition that soft skills are essential for professional success. According to Wyde, the programs are designed for professionals who want to strengthen presence, relationships, and responses under pressure, translating self-awareness into better choices, clearer communication, and more constructive collaboration. The launch of these on-demand courses underscores the increasing demand for flexible, skill-based learning in areas that directly affect workplace dynamics and social impact.
