EPC - EthicBizz Professional Core

The Heart of Future-Ready Leadership

What is EPC?

In the rapidly changing world of AI, automation, and digital disruption, students need more than technical proficiency to thrive—they need the ability to think critically, ethically, and lead with purpose. These are not just soft skills—they are essential life capabilities.

The EthicBizz Professional Core (EPC) is designed to equip students with this very foundation. It's not just another subject; it's the soul of the EthicBizz framework, deeply embedded in both the Youth Development Program (YDP) and the Senior Secondary Program (SSP).
