CLASS DESCRIPTION
In this course you will learn the fundamentals of business ownership. This includes discussing the process of starting a new business venture from idea to reality. The American landscape shows that more people work in a small business than not, and therefore we will equip students with a general business education in this course in addition to specific focus on constructing a business plan. Students will learn how to use resources to start and operate a small business.
Students can take this course in one of two tiers: A traditional HS course worth 0.5 credits, OR a 10/11/12 grade PSEO class*. Reach out to the instructor with questions on how the PSEO portion works. PSEO will involve more work than Tier 1, as it qualifies as 4 college credits in Business. The tutor of this course will also be the professor of the PSEO course. There will be an information meeting about this to help parents understand the situation better.
