Our dynamic and global world requires competency not only in English, but also in vital, higher-order skills that apply to your academic, professional, and social life. These life skills empower you to function effectively within the wider social, cultural, and economic worlds.

The Mind series is based on the idea that language is also a life skill — the key to communicating and connecting with others in our everyday lives. openMind develops both language and life skills to help you succeed.
