Description
Parents and students are invited to join us for this informational session to learn more about the second year of the Hudson chapter of the Young Entrepreneurs Academy that begins in January. An overview of the program and the new scholarship opportunities will be discussed.
The Hudson Area Chamber of Commerce and Tourism Bureau is pleased to bring the Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA) to the area to transform middle and high school students into business owners as part of a weekly entrepreneurship education class beginning this fall.
YEA is a cutting-edge program that takes students ages 11 to 18 through the process of starting and launching a real business or social movement over the course of an academic year. By the end of the class, students own and operate fully-formed and functioning businesses, which may be carried on after their graduation from the program.
Partnering with the Hudson Area Chamber of Commerce and Tourism Bureau are the Hudson School District, the University of Wisconsin–River Falls, and Xcel Energy.
