Teacher in Charge: Ms L. Everett.
This course provides students with the opportunity to learn and apply useful business skills such as planning, problem solving and decision making. For a large part of the year students will, in groups, plan and run a business that specifically focuses on the well-being of their community. In the latter part of the year, students will study various business concepts. This will require students investigating issues within a business and the impacts that occur due to these issues. Students will develop solutions for these issues and offer recommendations based on these solutions.
