    The unconscious

    What’s the idea behind the program?

    Mission Future School lets students create a digital personal profile of their strengths, regardless of their location.

    The strength profile is not about school grades or about knowledge. It is established based on how individuals interpret images. As they process them unconsciously, the profile reveals both known and unknown strengths.

    SwissSkills uses the Visual Implicit Profiler (VIP) from PSYfiers AG; this is a visual test that identifies personality traits based on the interpretation of simple graphic symbols.
