Integrating entrepreneurship skills and career development into the curriculum not only helps students answer the question, “What do I want to be when I grow up,” it also makes the curriculum more relevant. Career-focused activities enable the student to see why information and knowledge is necessary and how it is used in a work setting.

During this interactive, hands-on seminar, speakers will share with you a variety of strategies they use to engage students in school business ventures, promote the entrepreneurship spirit, apply marketing strategies, use interest inventories to identify career clusters and pathways, and apply career-focused activities that are appropriate for all content areas. We will also explore many terrific resources that can enhance instructional strategies.
