Welcome to the world of BizWorld

The BizWorld programs is a supplementary curriculum that reinforces academics through real world hands-on activities. The BizWorld project is recommended for 8th grade elementary school, students 12 years of age.  Bizworld teaches  students business; to work in teams and  to start and run their own small businesses in a simulated friendship bracelet industry. Taking on different leadership roles, students learn the basics of money management and entrepreneurship, as they apply for jobs, and design, manufacture, market and sell their products in the BizWorld marketplace.
BizWorld is financially made possible by so-called  adoptive companies and is run by an entrepreneur in cooperation with the teacher.
Unique to this project is that every company can adopt one or more schools and can in this way characterize themselves as a social corporate responsible company.
