What We’re Building
Vara’s first immersive courses and learning resources are currently in development. We are drawing on deep expertise in intelligence studies, national security, and homeland security — and inviting educators, subject-matter experts, and partner organizations to help shape what comes next.
One
Immersive, academically rigorous courses combining scholarship, cinematic storytelling, practitioner expertise, simulations, and reflection.
Each one is a single experience rather than a stack of modules. How those pieces fit together is set out in the seven components of the Vara learning experience.
Two
How Vara works with universities, organizations, educators, practitioners, and production partners.
We are seeking a small group of forward-looking institutions interested in helping shape and become part of Vara’s initial learning ecosystem.
We are expanding our network of exceptional educators, practitioners, and subject-matter experts who want to create learning that reaches beyond the traditional classroom. Opportunities may include course development, instruction, expert interviews and panels, simulations, and mentorship.
Have a course, story, or area of expertise that could be an extraordinary learning experience?
Let’s build it together.
Three
The three-minute stories, and the invitation for people to contribute their experience to future learners.
Every career, every challenge, every success — and every failure — leaves us knowing something we didn’t know before. The Summit Series collects that knowledge and puts it in front of the people who come next.
Whether you teach, practice, produce, or lead an institution — there is a way into this work.
