Oq8 Leadership Programme
The OQ8 Leadership Programme is an immersive summer camp designed to empower Omani students with leadership, communication, and cultural awareness skills. Hosted at the Oxford International Study Centre in the UK, the Programme enhances English proficiency, builds confidence, and broadens global perspectives. Beyond the classroom, students engage in cultural activities, site visits, and practical life experiences, from managing time and money to navigating public transportation with the aim of fostering independence and adaptability.
In 2024, 21 Omani students took part in this leadership-focused cross-cultural training. The goal of the programme, which was held at Oxford International Study Centre in the U.K., was to build students’ confidence, cultural awareness and readiness to compete internationally. The curriculum included intensive English courses along with subject-specific learning in math, science and economics. Students also participated in leadership workshops and took field trips to London, Cambridge and Brighton, expanding their global outlook and positioning them as future industry leaders.
