[Toolkit] Building a Student-Based Enterprise

Written by VariQuest Visual and Kinesthetic Learning Suite | Tue, Oct 25, 2022 @ 02:44 PM

As educators, we prepare our students not only with the tools needed to succeed in reading, writing, and arithmetic, but we're also preparing them for success as they move into adulthood beginning college and careers.

As such, many schools consider implementing student-based enterprise programs, to teach students real-world skills in exploring all the facets of running a business - from research & development to manufacturing to accounting to marketing. And because we know every educator could use extra tools to keep in their teaching "toolboxes" - we've put together a comprehensive booklet that just might help.

We at VariQuest are please to introduce to you - Building a Student-Based Enterprise: a CTE-Inspired Toolkit.

This 56-page resource was designed to arm you with activities supplemental to your curriculum and resources which will be helpful in strengthening your student-based enterprise, while showing you tools that can simplify what you’re already doing. This packet aims to give students engaging, meaningful experience in many of the 16 Career Clusters®.

In this toolkit you will find:

  • 13 before and after-launch student-based enterprise curriculum activities
  • Supplemental resource links and printable materials to help students write business plans, assign responsibilities, and refine product offerings
  • Tool recommendations and cost analysis for materials to support your student-based enterprise
  • And so much more!
