I am excited to announce we are starting an Entrepreneur Academy at Central Catholic! I believe our next generation of entrepreneurs can help solve some of the world's most difficult problems, and my hope is that we can in some small way help inspire young people to help create the future we all need.
Most of our students have never been exposed to entrepreneurship so my goal is to get them introduced through a series of fun interviews with entrepreneurs. Similar to the approach Sal Kahn uses on the Kahn Academy. Eventually, I would like to offer classes and competitions, but I think this is a great place to start.
Central Catholic students can earn their Entrepreneur Academy Certificate by attending 2 out 4 session this semester and 2 out of 4 sessions next semester. There will be a question and answer session where students can interview the entrepreneur- so come with questions in mind!
The sessions will be once a month from 7-8 am in the Central Catholic Conference Room, room number 126, on the following dates:
-September 17, Jason Tennenhouse. Click here to read his biography.
-October 8, Prahasith Veluvolu, Mimir LLC, CEO & Application Architect
-November 12, Paroon Chada, Passageways, Founder & CEO
-December 10, Entrepreneur is TBD.
Please click here to sign up to attend any of these sessions. Parents are welcome to come as well! We hope you will join us for CC Entrepreneur Academy!
