EntrepreneurshipU
DECA, through a collaborative effort with the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, has implemented a program to connect high school students to college entrepreneurship programs. The program involved the development of a Web site – www.entrepreneurU.org – which provides students, parents and school personnel with a searchable database of college entrepreneurship programs. The Web site also includes resources for entrepreneurship teachers, resources for students and scholarship opportunities for both students and teachers.
