History

Emerging Entrepreneurs launched in mid 2015 after parents expressed a desire for an Entrepreneurship Program to be developed for their kids. Concerned that in a world of hyper change, that their kids weren’t going to effectively learn the skills that they would need from school to be able to successfully thrive in the modern world.

As part of an initial trial we had 9 students from 5 schools + a homeschool student who participated in an extracurricular 10 session version of the program which was delivered face to face at theSPACE.

Emerging Entrepreneurs Today

Emerging Entrepreneurs has since evolved into a comprehensive Learning Management System (LMS) - https://explore.emergingentrepreneurs.com.au which teachers are trained and empowered to deliver.

Educational Material

The course is a ten part course teaching the student key concepts about Entrepreneurship. It involves interactive questions, collabrative questions with others in the class & a quiz at the end of each part.

Tools to Guide Students

The site has a framwork to help students design their MVP, record their progress & help them to decide whether to pivot or perserve with their idea.

Teacher Tools

The site has a teacher admin section, allowing teachers oversee their student's progress, allowing you to guide in class material specific to student's responses.
