Confidence Crew Workshop Program
Confidence isn’t built in one workshop.
It’s built one conversation at a time.
Every week, students face moments that test their confidence.
- Should I introduce myself?
- Should I ask for help?
- Should I apply for that job?
- Should I speak up in class?
- Should I network with someone I don’t know?
One workshop can inspire students for an hour.
A series of connected workshops can change how they think, act and show up long after the program has finished.
That’s why we created Confidence Crew.
– IEAA Excellence in Innovation Award winner
– Featured in the Australian Government-funded Best Practice Guide for International Student Wellbeing
– Research-backed confidence-first engagement programs
– Flexible live online and in-person delivery
Why Confidence Crew?
Most student workshops are designed as one-off events.
Confidence Crew is different.
Rather than delivering a single workshop, we deliver a series of connected workshops that build on one another over time. Students learn new ideas, put them into practice, reflect on what worked and return ready for the next step.
It’s a little like going to the gym. One session might leave you feeling motivated, but lasting change comes from showing up consistently.
The same is true for confidence.
Choose the playlist that best matches your students’ needs
We’ve created five recommended workshop playlists based on the challenges we see most often across universities, colleges and student accommodation providers.
Each playlist includes six carefully selected workshops that work together to create meaningful behaviour change.

Online, Live or a Blend of Both
Most Confidence Crew workshops are delivered live online, making them accessible to students wherever they are.
Some workshops are even more powerful when delivered in person. Activities such as networking, leadership and communication give students the opportunity to practise new skills, receive real-time feedback and build genuine connections with their peers.
Many providers choose a blended approach, delivering most workshops online before bringing students together for a live session that brings everything they’ve learned into practice.
