The problem? Most resumes blend in.

Colleges + employers aren’t looking for someone with just a great SAT score. They want to see unique, real-world projects you've started on your own.

MEET THE CO-FOUNDERS (AND THE LIVING PROOF)

Swetha Tandri
Co-Founder, IMPACT10

Greetings, rebels! I’m Swetha. By age 20, I combined my love of math and music to grow my business, Melodies for Math, to over 70k followers, and have landed tens of thousands of $$ in brand deals, tutoring services, and digital products.

I didn't wait to graduate or land a traditional job. I saw an opportunity, took a leap of faith, and created something unique and impactful while at the SAME TIME, majoring in computer science at the University of Texas.

Hannah Grady Williams
Co-Founder, IMPACT10

Hi! I’m Hannah Williams, your Chief Rebel. I turbocharged my career by graduating college at 18, and diving straight into a corporate consulting role.

Along the way, I wrote a best-selling book, have been featured on top-charting podcasts, and did a TEDx talk. Now I’m 25 and have connections most people could only dream of! (Now I even know the guy who filmed Lil Uzi Vert’s I Just Wanna Rock Music Video ;) 

So you’ve got some questions…

If the answer isn’t here, email us at hello@dskills.io or chat with Demi in the bottom right-hand corner of your screen!

  • IMPACT10 is ideal for high school and gap year students, ages 16 and older. As part of the bootcamp, you’ll be actively posting your learnings and impacts on social media for accountability + build your professional network. LinkedIn’s minimum age for creating an account is 16.

  • We don’t believe in gatekeeping! Your general knowledge of AI is your key to shaping your future. Our application screens for creativity, motivation, and resilience.

    Students who think out-of-the-box thrive in d’Skills sprints!

  • In IMPACT10, you choose your own journey! Whatever digital skill you’re interested (and businesses would pay you for) you can learn. Some students want to learn videography, others are building AI chatbots. Some want to use digital design skills and others want to get good at SEO + analytics! The d’Skill you select is up to you! We’ll teach you how they apply to a real business, and how you can learn WAY more than you thought in a short period of time.

  • IMPACT10 is open to students based in the USA and Canada. The only prerequisite is your knowledge of AI tools and a desire to make an impact!

  • Most students spend about 30 mins/day on IMPACT10. But this bootcamp is whatever you make of it. Our goal is to get you to the IMPACT where you earn $$ using your d’Skills to help a real business.

    So if you acquire your digital badges and level up quickly, you can take shortcuts! Or if you’d prefer to spend more time honing a d’Skill, you can do that too!

  • Yes! There will be a live session each Sunday night at 6ET/3PT. All sessions are recorded if you can’t make it!

  • You’ll need to have ChatGPT+ ($20/month) for the duration of IMPACT10. This account is directly with OpenAI, and is not included in the bootcamp cost.

    If you select a d’Skills that requires access to paid subscriptions, you’ll make a decision on if you’d like to use the free version or paid. This is entirely up to you (for example, Canva has a free and paid version)

  • Alright, here's the scoop: IMPACT10 is NOT like school. In this bootcamp, you're successful when you're making real money while creating tangible impact for an actual business. Plus, you get to learn super relevant d'Skills in the process, like navigating AI tools - that's part of the adventure.

    Want to push the pedal on your learning? You can totally do that. Prefer to take some extra time to perfect a concept? That's absolutely fine.

    You'll be able to track your progress through our digital badge system, moving up from the rank of Cadet to Major throughout the bootcamp. It's all about progressing at your own speed, in your own style. (and YOU hold yourself accountable)

  • YES! We have a bring a friend program. If you bring 2 paying friends, your seat is FREE! Fill out this form once they’ve registered.

  • During IMPACT10, you’ll be identifying small businesses in your local area that can use your d’Skills. For example, coffee shops, mom-and-pop boutiques, and restaurants. We’ll help you figure out which businesses need your help! You might also opt to select digital businesses that need a student’s perspective — coaches, consultants, etc. You’ll be leveraging LinkedIn, Google Maps, and your personal knowledge of your town to find opportunities.

  • We want your investment to be 100% risk-free.

    That's why we offer a 100% no-questions-asked refund & rollover policy if you decide within 14 days of starting that it's not for you.

    And if you find after enrolling that your schedule is busier than you thought, we will roll you forward into a future cohort and zero additional cost.

    However, part of what makes IMPACT10 work is the financial accountability. If you do not engage with the bootcamp materials or fail to take action during the program, this does not qualify for a refund.
