CONNECT THE COURSES / PROPOSED PROGRAMS
Give your learning
a direction.
A program connects courses, practice, and a personal project into a larger journey. The following sequences are curriculum proposals.
The 3 Steps to DaVinci
Mind Genius Program
A focused foundation in developing your DaVinci Mind, thinking, techniques, and creative problem solving.
- Build your foundation: C1 and C2.
- Explore and practice: C3 and C4.
- Apply your learning: a personally meaningful project and a continuing development plan.
Proposed course grouping. The final three-step model remains to be defined by Grant.
The DaVinci Mind Accelerated
Development Program
A broader journey connecting the foundation with happiness, meaningful success, AI, and ongoing practice.
- Establish your foundation: C1–C4.
- Extend your practice: C5–C7, with C8 as an optional application.
- Connect and reflect: progress reviews, a final project, and a continuing development plan.
Delivery, duration, support, and program requirements are not yet established.
Working program titles describe the intended direction. They do not guarantee a measured intelligence increase or a particular speed of development.
YOUR INVITATION FROM PROFESSOR GRANT
Inspire possibility.
Encourage growth.
“I want to inspire people to see what is possible for them, and encourage them to develop and enjoy their minds.”
Proposed statement for C. Grant Anderson · Professor Grant
Bring your curiosity. Examine the ideas. Try something useful for yourself. The Academy’s purpose is to support that learning journey through courses, practical activities, and reflection.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
A few useful
answers.
Can I enroll now?
Not yet. This page previews a proposed catalog. Enrollment will be announced after the courses, access arrangements, and delivery details are ready.
Will the mini-courses be free?
Free access is proposed for the four introductory mini-courses, with companion mini-books planned. Final access arrangements have not been announced.
Do I need to think of myself as “smart”?
No. The invitation is to bring curiosity and a willingness to practice. The introductory material is intended to encourage you to explore and develop your mind from your own starting point.
How do the Academy and The DaVinci Minds connect?
TheDaVinciMinds.org introduces ideas, stories, and possibilities through Learn, Discover, and Become. DaVinci Minds Academy is the planned home for structured courses and programs supporting that journey.
What about course length, prices, and program support?
These details are still being developed. Final course pages will need to explain scope, format, duration, price, access, and available support before enrollment opens.
