VIRTUAL COMPANY PROGRAM
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Just like the Company Program run in classrooms, we have been able to adopt the same approach to run the Virtual Company Program. This is a 5-week series program and students would be engaged on zoom and would be taught how to start and run a business by identifying problems in their community and coming up with innovative business solutions.
