High School of Business™ (HSB) is a dynamic, project-based learning experience supported by a devoted network of teachers, students, administrators, local college partners, local business professionals, state education departments, and curriculum and PD experts. Whether your school is urban or rural, public or private, large, medium, or small, High School of Business engages and challenges students with accelerated, hands-on business projects.

1. Explore the Program

2. Plan for Your Program

    • Determine your program of study. Will you offer only the required courses, or add on optionals?
    • Estimate expenses (see Handbook, Appendix C) and understand training requirements.
    • Identify key stakeholders. A Primary Contact is the main point of contact between MBA Research and the school district; a Primary Administrator (usually a Principal, Assistant Principal, or CTE Director) champions the program at the administration level. Participating teachers should be eager to facilitate the project-based learning of accelerated business concepts.
