OCSB Social Entrepreneurs Program Details
The OCSB Social Entrepreneurs Program (SEP) is an exciting endeavour for students to partake in an enriching, business-oriented, and student-led initiative where they can gain entrepreneurial experience , develop innovative mindsets and future ready skills to take action and make a difference in the world they live in. Students will have the opportunity to develop skills and competencies within the Deep Learning Framework.Students will work with their teachers, together with experienced Volunteer Business Mentors, to research social issues, select a charity, develop a product or service and build out a social enterprise. All profits from the sale of products or services will go toward the selected charity.The program can begin as early as the teacher wants and will generally run throughout the year. Of course starting earlier allows more time to build out a great social enterprise and expose kids to entrepreneurship.There should be something to excite every student.Past students have become involved in website design, coding, 3D printing, product or service design, video editing, sales, marketing - imagine the possibilities!With COVID-19, this program can expand the students' "bubble" bringing into the classroom through video conferencing the volunteer business mentors and the many other resources, partners and experts from around the world. Let this program bring the world to the kids and allow them to experience that kids really can BE the change!Visit the website at https: https://sites.google.com/ocsb.ca/ocsbsocialentrepreneurs/home
