Talent Advancement Program

As of June 23, 2020, programs in this catalog will no longer be offered to new students at the Denver and North Miami campuses.  At the close of the 2020-2021 academic year (subject to possible courses through the summer of 2021), no programs in this catalog will be offered to any students at the Denver and North Miami campuses, as those campuses will be closing after the end of the 2020-2021 academic year (subject to possible courses through the summer of 2021).

The Talent Advancement Program is designed to help students create greater success in college and in life. Students selected for the program as part of their admission to JWU learn strategies for creating greater academic, professional and personal success. In taking TAP1001 Talent Advancement Program Fundamentals I and TAP1005 Talent Advancement Program Fundamentals II, TAP students have access to enhanced services from faculty and staff from their first year through graduation. Students become empowered with confidence to develop their natural inner strengths that will help them make wise choices. TAP is structured to help students stay focused, make new friends and acquire essential skills. Through active participation in the TAP courses and a robust series of programs, students explore questions, issues, and practical techniques regarding Responsibility, Motivation, Self-Management, Interdependence, Self-Awareness, Life-Long Learning, Emotional Intelligence and Self-Esteem.
