3DE by Junior Achievement
3DE partners with national and local businesses to introduce the case method approach to public high schools, enabling students to connect their education to careers beyond the classroom.
- As a Project Coach, you will review student business plans and advise student teams on how they can improve, or adjust, their yearlong project (small business plan). Project Coaches act as a sounding board by helping students recognize the strengths of each team, and how to move forward in developing their own business.
- A brief Virtual Training is scheduled for all Business Professionals. This 45 min session will provide you with background on 3DE and the case challenge, as well as provide helpful insights about how to work with students.
- All sessions take place in-person at West Forsyth High School in the 3DE classrooms.
