What is Calm & Conquer?

Calm and Conquer is your virtual toolkit for navigating the challenges of Year 12 exams with confidence and composure. Created and delivered exclusively by ACAP University College, this free online workshop series features two dedicated sessions – one for Year 12 students and another for parents and loved ones.

Led by Alessandro Digiacomo – who brings his unique perspective as a former secondary teacher, current school counsellor and ACAP academic – these tailored sessions deliver evidence-based strategies that work in the real world.

By addressing the distinct needs of both students and their support networks, Calm and Conquer creates a comprehensive framework for exam success while maintaining wellbeing for the entire family.
