At Electives, we're on a mission to build an innovative training curriculum that employees will love, taught by people they'll never forget.

We believe that great teachers can be life-changing, and we help organizations embed these life-changing moments into their culture.

Electives is backed by top investors, including G20 Ventures, Accomplice, Boston Seed, and Bertelsmann Media.
