At CIC, we believe that chess is more than just a game – it is a powerful tool for teaching critical life skills that can help individuals thrive in all areas of their lives. That’s why we have integrated a comprehensive life skills education curriculum into our chess programming, designed to foster creativity, critical thinking, problem-solving, cooperation, negotiation, decision-making, self-management, resilience, communication, respect for others, empathy, participation, taking on challenges, making connections, perspective-taking, focused self-control, and self-directed engagement.
Our instructors are trained to incorporate these skills into every aspect of our chess lessons, from teaching problem-solving strategies to encouraging cooperation and teamwork during gameplay.
Participants learn to think strategically, consider multiple perspectives, and communicate effectively with others – all essential skills for success in the 21st century.
By integrating life skills education into our chess curriculum, we are empowering individuals of all ages and backgrounds, everyone, to develop the tools they need to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and resilience. We are proud to offer this unique approach to chess education, and we are grateful to our donors for making it possible.
