Why Entrepreneurship Should Be Taught Before College

What would the world look like if kids grew up understanding the potential that entrepreneurship offers? I wish I’d been taught entrepreneurship when I was young for lots of reasons. As a farm boy in Idaho, all I knew about my potential career was that I didn’t want to be poor when I grew up. My grandpa, who was a successful doctor, suggested I become an anesthesiologist, and I latched onto his advice as if it were gospel. But if I had found out I was wired to be an entrepreneur early on, I would have entered my college years with a stronger sense of who I was, and had a more deliberate plan.

It is reckless to underestimate the importance of business education, but the truth is that every student starts preparing for the business world even before getting into business school.

NBEA's Latest Business Education Forum Focuses on Personal Sustainability In The Time of COVID

Nearly 8% of the general U.S. teaching profession leaves their jobs every year, the majority before retirement age. This exodus is responsible for about 90% of annual teacher job openings, and 67% of these jobs are open for reasons other than retirement, namely lack of administrative support, lack of adequate preparation and mentoring, unsatisfactory compensation and poor teaching conditions. Self-care and wellness challenges are emerging themes in the business educator community. Here’s how to cope.

In addition, this edition of the Business Education Forum includes:

Practical Strategies for Cultivating Personal Sustainability By Joanne M. Lozar Glenn
Affectiveliving.com: Inspiring Purpose, Perspective, and Perseverance in At-Risk Educators
Grade Less, Learn More: My Journey to a 0-Point Gradebook By Alex Lamon
Using Holiday and Milestone Event Consumer Spending Data to Teach Economics, Business,and Marketing By Maria Edlin King and Jackie Morgan
