TIE Academy's flagship learning system. Every weekly session begins with a real news event and walks students through the five GETIT lenses — Geopolitics, Economics, Technology, Investment, Take Action — so they can see, in real time, how the world actually fits together.

What happens in a session
Every session begins with a real news event — a geopolitical shift, a market disruption, an AI breakthrough — and walks students and parents through all five lenses. Topics rotate weekly and span semiconductor geopolitics, central bank policy, AI regulation, energy transitions, global trade disputes, equity markets, and emerging technologies.
Every lesson ends with a mandatory Take Action component — a specific, audience-calibrated task that moves learners from understanding to doing. A parallel bilingual intelligence briefing (Korean and English) is distributed to parent members each week, so families can continue the conversation at home.
Why it matters in an AI-driven world
Schools teach subjects in isolation. The world doesn't work that way. AI, geopolitics, and markets are deeply entangled, and the students who will thrive are those who can see those connections in real time. GETIT develops exactly that: the habit of reading the world through multiple lenses at once, then acting on what they see.
