Imagine connecting your students with the likes of Laura Chappell, the brilliant mind behind Wireshark, Eric O’Neill, the stealthy “ghost” from covert operations, or Justine Phillips, a distinguished partner at DLP, all from the comfort of your classroom. SynED Live@5 makes this possible by offering exclusive podcast-format interviews with top professionals and trailblazers. These luminaries have not only shaped their fields but have also graced our Live@5 sessions, sharing invaluable insights and experiences.

Networking Opportunities That Open Doors

Most guests on Live@5 are more than willing to share their contact details with listeners. For students, this opens a gateway to networking circles previously deemed unreachable. Such interactions can lead to mentorships, internships, and even job opportunities in fields they are passionate about.
