An Introductory Start-Up Course

For The Young Entrepreneur 

Designed for passionate young tech students

Entrepreneurship Education teaches students an array of different skillsets like problem solving, critical thinking, creativity, design skills, negotiating, marketing, resilience, financial responsibility, systems & process thinking just to name a few.

Kids have great ideas that solve real world problems and they now have low-code, low-cost tech tools to put together solutions. Our students have so much fun coming up with their own business names and logos. They love getting down and dirty with their tasks set by the team leaders. Going out into the community to chat with local residents is great way to build confidence when talking to people.
