SCADamp

From elevator pitch to presentation or Zoom to boardroom, SCADamp prepares students and alumni for the peak-performance moments that launch brands, businesses, and careers.

In SCADamp's tiered workshop series and one-on-one coaching sessions, students learn how to speak, visualize, and connect across a wide spectrum of career-defining contexts. Equipped with the latest technology and presentation stages—including simulated speaking environments, videoconference spaces, and virtual reality stations—students are taught to share their work, ideas, and credentials with polish and power.

SCADamp coaching helped SCAD fashion maven Christopher John Rogers win the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund, announcing his brand in the fashion world on a global stage. Much like Rogers, Naecia Dixon sharpened her presentation, interviewing, story mapping, and visualization skills en route to a trio of major accolades: the 2022 Fashion Scholarship Fund Case Study Competition, the FSF Chairman's Award, and the 2022 Virgil Abloh Postmodern Scholarship. SCADamp coaches have also assisted SCAD teams who have won international competitions like Walt Disney Imagineering's Imaginations Design Competition and the Global Wellness Summit’s Shark Tank of Wellness Global Student Competition. With its advanced technology and experienced coaches, SCADamp sets the stage for students to be heard—and get hired.
