The education was in Danish until August 2005 as the students were mainly from the Scandinavian countries. Now the official language at Kaospilot is in English, the most commonly spoken secondary language in the region.
In the summer of 2013 the Kaospilot school moved from their old address in Mejlgade to the neighborhood Filmbyen.

Programme
The Kaospilot curriculum is approved by EQUIS, AACSB and AMBA accredited Aarhus BSS, Aarhus University. The programme takes 3 years, divided into phases in place of classes or subjects. The approach is team based with teams starting, studying and graduating together and every year the school accepts around 37 students who together constitute a team.
The curriculum is divided in four disciplines: Creative Business Design, Creative Leadership Design, Creative Project Design and Creative Process Design with each discipline divided into sub-components. The pedagogical platform relies on opportunity-based-pedagogy (i.e. to see, understand, create and act upon opportunities) and is rooted in many different approaches such as reflection over action, appreciative inquiry, systems thinking, positive psychology action learning, coaching and mentoring.
