Applications are open for the McKinsey Forward Program 2022. Forward is designed to equip the next generation of young talent with must-have practical skills to succeed in the future of work. It is a free online learning program focusing on the leadership, business, and digital skills that are relevant and transferrable across industries and roles.

Forward is a three-level learning journey delivered in an interactive digital and virtual format. It begins with exploring foundational skills, then moves to applying those skills on case studies designed from real-world scenarios, and finally embedding new behaviors through ongoing reflection and peer learning.

Program Levels

  • Advanced level (12 weeks): See your newfound skills come to life through an immersive journey of advanced digital content, bespoke virtual workshops, and a group assignment with real-time peer feedback. Develop your individual leadership style in a collaborative learning environment.
  • Network level (Ongoing): Join a vibrant global network of young life-long learners and get exclusive access to further learning and networking activities. You can also get involved and pay it forward by co-creating the future of the Forward program through different volunteering opportunities.
