Future-Ready

Talents

Real projects. Simulated workplaces. Scalable experience.

WorkSim transforms industry briefs into immersive, role-based learning experiences.

Students are placed inside a realistic workplace simulation where they must interpret a brief, make decisions, respond to changing stakeholder needs, use AI appropriately, produce professional outputs, and reflect on their capability growth.

WorkSim gives every student access to realistic industry projects inside simulated workplace environments.

Students step into real roles, respond to real briefs, collaborate with AI-powered managers and stakeholders, receive structured feedback, and graduate with portfolio evidence of applied capability.

Real industry challenge

Employers, startups, SMEs, corporates and community organisations contribute real business problems, project briefs and workplace scenarios for HEX to build.

Experienced students

Each student finishes with portfolio artefacts, reflective evidence and feedback mapped to future-ready capabilities.
Built on HEX’s future-skills framework

WorkSim is powered by HEX’s eXQ framework: our capability model for the human skills students need to thrive in an AI-shaped world.

Get Started

WorkSim does not just teach students about the future of work. It lets them practise it.

Why universities use WorkSim

The future graduate will not be judged only by what they know. They will be judged by how they think, how they use AI, how they respond to ambiguity, how they communicate with others, and how quickly they can create value in unfamiliar environments.

WorkSim prepares students for that reality.
Scale work-integrated learning

Give large cohorts access to meaningful industry experience without needing a one-to-one internship or placement for every student.

Improve graduate employability

Help students practise the skills employers actually expect: judgement, communication, AI fluency, problem-solving and initiative.

Support international students

Create accessible, confidence-building industry experience for students who often face barriers to internships, local networks and graduate employment.

Bring industry into the curriculum

Turn employer challenges into flexible, curriculum-aligned simulations that can sit inside courses, careers programs, capstones or co-curricular experiences.

Generate evidence of capability

Students finish with tangible work samples, feedback and reflections they can use in interviews, portfolios and professional conversations.

Move faster than the traditional curriculum

WorkSim can reflect emerging business challenges, new technologies and changing industry expectations in real time.

Frequently asked questions

Do not worry, here are some questions we always get for our program.

How much does HEX Career Accelerator cost?

HEX Career Accelerator costs AUD $490 per learner. However, if you wish to purchase in bulk, you may be eligible for an exclusive discount. Get in touch with us to learn more.

Are there any options to get funding or scholarships for this program?

We have over $1 million AUD in funding from various universities who are able to sponsor or subsidise your program cost. View our list of current available funding.
‍Explore Funding Here.We also recommend chatting with your Study Abroad or Global Mobility office for all enquiries regarding program funding.

What are the assessments like?

We don't believe in long and boring exams, so assessments (which we call checkpoints) have been designed to be practical in order to equip you with the right mindset, skillset, and toolset!

Our checkpoints, regardless of the unit,  can range from reflective or research focussed (i.e. asking you a series of questions so you can explore your relationship/attitude/behavior with money and set some financial goals), and others will be practical (i.e. creating a business plan or completing a business case project).

Each checkpoint will be graded by our team of assessors, so you will get feedback as you progress through the course. Some checkpoints are a hurdle requirement and are graded as P/F, whereas others are scored. You will be required to submit all checkpoints within the program dates in order to receive your credit (That's 6 checkpoints in 6 weeks).

Can I receive academic credit for this program?

HEX Career Accelerator does not include a Certificate of Completion issued by an accredited university. If you wish to obtain one, you can do so for an addition cost of $550 AUD.

This certificate is recognised by most universities for credit equivalency. However, this isn’t guaranteed, and you’ll need to check with your own university about how much credit you can get and for which subjects. We recommend you get in touch with our team at hello@startwithhex.com, who will be able to help you navigate this with your course advisor.

The dates don't suit me. What do I do? 

This can happen! We have multiple intakes throughout the year, so if the upcoming cohort doesn't work, we suggest you book your spot for a future cohort. Please get in touch with hello@startwithhex.com and we'll sort you out.

What if I cannot finish the HEX program within 6 weeks?

That's the beauty of HEX, you will not be left behind! We are moving as one unit. We've got you. However, if you have special needs or an illness, please let us know so we can best support you.

Stay in the HEXiverse!
