About Us
Critical Thinking Academy came into being in 2013 with the express purpose of imparting critical thinking training to the corporate sector, universities and colleges
The World Economic Forum lists Critical Thinking Skills among the top three skills required for successs in jobs. However this skill is not formally taught in our education system or part of any corporates training program until recently. We have made it our mission to propagate Critical thinking across various sectors.
Corporates
Critical thinking skills are essential for good problem solving and decision making. We offer four different types of training programs to suit differing needs.
Universities and Colleges
We will help colleges and universities design and run Critical thinking courses. Our assistance starts from curriculum design, providing teaching material and helping set up student assessment. We also provide Critical thinking training to faculty
Students
We periodically offer online Critical thinking training to students. The Critical thinking essentials program is especially useful for GRE, GMAT , Law and other competitive exams that test your logical reasoning skills.
