The Youth Entrepreneurial Program (YEP!) is designed for High School students in the 11th and 12th grades who are aspiring to become future small business or nonprofit owners. We provide a comprehensive learning curriculum that equips students with the skills, goal alignment, and operational and management techniques necessary to effectively and efficiently set up, structure, operate, manage, and market new business ventures. 

We encourage school-age students to attend from any Independent, Private, or Detention school district throughout the U.S. to register and participate in our YEP program.

The YEP! program meetings are:

• Conducted (3) days a week for (2) weeks

• 100% online within a live, private virtual classroom, instructed by the lead consultant.

• Students must participate using either a desktop, tablet, or laptop computer device. Participants are not allowed to use mobile or cell phone devices during meetings.
