This three-day course gives teenagers an in-depth look at business ownership. Participants go home with an exciting new title of president or CEO of their own company, a real working business plan, business cards, flyers, and marketing plans - ready to collect revenue from their first entre- preneurial ventures.
Students enjoy group activities, case studies, games, competitions, and special speakers. They also participate in the YoungBiz Business Plan Challenge, where they present their business plans to busi- nesspeople and compete for venture capital.
Teenagers develop skills in negoti- ation, sales, customer service, problem solving, networking, time management, record keeping, and public speaking.
Using a unique hands-on, real-world approach, this challenging course instills an outlook and mindset in young people that will help them discover financial opportunities now and throughout life, as well as prepare them for future careers.
