"The TREP$ Workshops were fun,
informative, and especially exciting!"
          -- Nick, Grade 6

 
Learning all you need to know to launch your own business is fun at the TREP$ Workshops!  The fast-paced, engaging classes cover the topics of product development, finance, marketing, advertising, and sales.  An  additional Workshop is offered after the TREP$ Marketplace and gives the kids the opportunity to reflect on what they have learned and all that they have accomplished.

During the Workshops, the classroom takes on a professional environment as students are encouraged to develop leadership skills, practice critical thinking, solve problems creatively, demonstrate economic concepts, become risk takers, form partnerships with the business community, and begin planning their own businesses.  The kids love the idea of being taken seriously!

ImagePerhaps it's because the topic is typically reserved for older students, that kids in grades 4 through 8 find entrepreneurship irresistible!  The content and activities of the TREP$ Workshops are specially designed with the particular abilities and needs of kids ages 9-14 in mind.  Thought-provoking cartoons, role-plays, and team "challenges" help to teach business basics in an age-appropriate and fun-filled manner.

The knowledge and skills acquired at the TREP$ Workshops thoroughly prepare your young entrepreneurs for their "grand opening" at the Marketplace!
