Elevate Entrepreneurship Systems

Elevate Entrepreneurship Systems is dedicated to entrepreneurship education with a focus on youth. The Elevate System engages youth in practical activities that teach how to recognize opportunity, problem solving skills, decision making, and team building and also encourage confidence, leadership, independence, personal & social responsibility, and an overall entrepreneurial mindset. Students are taught: -Identifying Entrepreneurial Opportunities -Communication (Presentation, Networking, Sales, Customer Service, etc) -Time & Financial Management -Many other additional deliberate and tacit skills These objectives are achieved through intensive project-based, practical learning environments. Students then identify low to no- cost micro-enterprise opportunities and in many cases begin operating immediately. In some instances, Elevate works with local stake-holders to identify needs within the community that can be met utilizing products and/or services offered by student businesses. Elevate assists in the planning, structuring, and execution of these businesses. Once the youth are in business, academic activities and higher education can be promoted. They ultimately become active self-motivated learners because of the practical use of the education they receive.
