Jump Fundamentals

Jump Fundamentals is exactly what it sounds like: a fundamental, introductory overview course designed for any jumper—past, present, or future—with some, none, or all prior experience in taking a jump.

Busy? Limited free time with work, school, kids, family? No problemo. We designed Jump Fundamentals as a self-guided, go at your own pace, and at your own time, experience. You'll have all the core material to get started on your jump.

Jump Fundamentals combines the three core pillars of the When to Jump mission:

• Connection. Meet like-minded students from around the world, who want to support one another in the process of jumping. Gain access to expert jumpers, mentors, Teacher Assistants and team members from the WTJ community—all dedicated to helping you succeed. A jump is never made alone, and we've designed a collaborative, team-based course experience to make sure you are supported, connected, and part of our crew
• Education. You'll be challenged from day one, with weekly assignments and activities designed for personal growth, as well as strategic planning and long-term goal setting. From reflection tasks and group discussion prompts to read/watch/listen assignments and homework worksheets, our education modules are thoughtfully designed and carefully crafted to push you forward in your jump and in your life.
• Inspiration. We'll immerse you with curated jump content from across our platform of stories from jumpers of every type, making jumps of all kinds. Guest lecture videos and Weekly Wisdom talks will provide both the inspiration, and the insights, to help you craft and guide your jump.
  

Jump Fundamentals is structured across four learning modules, with each module relating to one of the four phases of the Jump Curve framework: Listen to the Little Voice, Make a Plan, Let Yourself Be Lucky, and Don't Look Back. See below for a visual representation of the framework.

Lastly, Jump Fundamentals is truly designed for anyone. Our students range from millennials to baby boomers, single parents to first-generation immigrants. You don't have to have started a jump—or even have a jump in mind—when you take this course. We'll meet you wherever you are, and push you further in your journey.
