Experiential Immersion

Experiential Immersion programs form a key part of the student’s learning process at SOIL. It is our belief that students learn more from the outside (real world) than inside their classrooms. Our PGPM HR students are exposed to a wide range of learning immersion activities throughout their program duration.
