“The girls really love doing the curriculum and being more independent with it! The content doesn't fry their brains and it's more reflective so they're really having fun!”
Oscar N., High School Entrepreneurship Teacher“The best thing I learned through this program is tenacity. In these unprecedented times, it has been difficult for me to get up and have something to be excited about. However, this program allowed me to push myself to create.”
Siima M., 11th Grader“The middle schoolers enjoyed having something new to work on and they had such big ideas. I was so impressed with their creativity and they were motivated to work on it even after they went home!”
Darlene C., Middle School Social Studies Teacher & Club Leader“The best thing I learned is that there is always a place for your ideas, and constant revision can make them something great.”

These are just a few of the incredible program and schools we're working with to bring entrepreneurship to girls!
Everything you need to know so that you can get started today!
Not at all! While the focus of our curriculum is entrepreneurship, we also fully encourage educators who are teaching classes in economics, leadership, personal finance, computer science, even social justice, and many more to use content from our curriculum to help students come up with ideas to solve problems using the core principles from the topic of their course.
Our curriculum uses social-emotional learning (SEL) and project-based learning to help students see themselves as entrepreneurs who can identify problems they actually want to solve. The activities empower students to come up with ideas, create a plan to develop them, and test their ideas to create a launch read business.
Each lesson is about 1 to 2 hours; however, depending on how long the course is running it can be compressed or stretched to suit the depth of learning and time frame available. We've designed the curriculum to be flexible and suit many different learning layouts. Our curriculum can support everything from a 2 week intensive to a semester-long course and beyond.
Absolutely! The Start to Launch Course is a student-facing version of the curriculum that can be used for self-guided learning or as a companion to group sessions taught with the Mindset Essentials for Teachers!
Middle and high school students are the main user groups for our curriculum, but it is also great for older groups of beginners (community college students, adult education programs, etc) looking to start their entrepreneurial journey.
Our curriculum is well-suited for all 3 modes of teaching. Between our self-guided and group-based options, pdfs that can be edited or printed, and the use of multiple media for teaching, students can be well served whether they’re in a classroom, on a screen, or both!
Yes! Our online course for students allows teachers and educators to assign learning modules to students and receive those assignments turned in via google drive or students can submit them to an existing LMS. In this way, students can learn completely asynchronously or students can complete asynchronous learning and teachers can also facilitate guided group sessions using the Mindset Essentials for Teachers curriculum for the best of both worlds!
