Make it Your Business & Technology Systems

Course Overview Make it Your Business & Technology Systems will collaboratively merge
together to create a class that will be named by the students. Students are
going to be immersed in business training that will stretch their
imagination and creativity as they enter the world of Entrepreneurship
& Technology Systems. They will be asked to create an actual company
from their talent, interest, and passion. Their work must be innovative
and value driven. At the end of the course, students will participate in
Andrew Lewis’ edition of Shark Tank.
