The program spans five years and integrates three core areas and fifteen lines of business, tailored to help each candidate meet their unique goals. Candidates share living spaces with twelve others, eliminating household costs and significantly reducing food expenses through a communal fund. Throughout the program, participants will acquire professional licenses and master diverse skill sets.

Weekly Reviews: Ongoing feedback sessions are held to evaluate progress, address challenges, and refine strategies.
Skill Development: Regularly scheduled training sessions to enhance professional skills and facilitate the acquisition of new licenses. One day each week is allocated for focused program development.
Initial Setup:
On the first day, candidates enter a partnership with Ark of X, engaging in three distinct lines of business. A candidate-specific fund is established, which, upon program completion, is transferred to their personal account. Candidates begin without prior knowledge of these business lines; however, comprehensive support from project managers and training from mentors and team leads are provided to ensure successful integration and growth.

Completion and Future Pathways:
Upon completion, candidates will get to sell their existing lines of business to other candidates to add to their account. Here, candidates don't receive diplomas but instead gain access to their substantial candidate accounts, equipped with funds and the know-how to manage their finances lifelong. Possible future paths include:
