Young Entrepreneur Institute

Today was one of those days where you could actually see confidence growing. Students worked together, solved problems, shared ideas, and stepped up on stage to pitch in front of a full auditorium.

YEI was proud to partner with YSS and APS as part of 5th Quarter Success and help students experience what entrepreneurship education looks like in action: creativity, teamwork, communication, and the courage to share your idea.

What does a great Connecting Educators to Entrepreneurs day look like?

A real story from a real entrepreneur. Hands-on workshops with ideas you can use in August. Time with NWA teachers who care about the same things you do. And you get paid $50 to be there.
