Beginning in September, the 3DE 11th grade students are learning how to start their own businesses, and we need professionals to help jump-start their ventures as a “Project Coach.” This volunteer opportunity would be a great fit for entrepreneurs and/or professionals who enjoy brainstorming business ideas with our 11th grade students!
In this early Ideation phase, students will be brainstorming around what they would like their business to provide. This could be a service or a product, and each of our students will activate their business this spring! You can help by coaching them through the creative process and helping them connect the dots on how their business could be feasible.
“Project Coach” Volunteer Dates/Times Below
Time Commitment: Single session or multiple sessions available. 2 – 5 hour sessions. Choose which option would work for your schedule below!
Location: In-person, at specific high school locations below to work directly with 11th grade students
Business Plan Phase: Ideate – Coaches will review students’ business ideas for feasibility and provide feedback.
Note: Some student teams may be further along than others in the ideation process.
