Interested in sharing your business experience with students eager to learn?
Get Involved with the Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA!).
YEA! is an intensive nine-month program that teaches middle and high school students how to start and run their own REAL businesses. Students brainstorm business ideas, write business plans, file DBAs, design a company brand and logo, pitch their businesses to potential investors, and actually launch their businesses. All of the learning is real and experiential.

If you are interested in learning or contributing to the program, you can attend one of our upcoming YEA! Informational Sessions on April 24, 2008, at either the U of R or SUNY Geneseo. There you can meet a recent graduate, and hear first-hand about his experiences and businesses. The sessions are free and open to the public. Call the Young Entrepreneurs Academy at (585) 275-6902 to RSVP today!
If you already know you want to get involved with the Academy, please print and fill out the YEA! involvement form. Return the completed form to the Office of Special Programs via fax: (585) 461-5901 or mail: YEA! Involvement / 127 Lattimore Hall / Box 270358 / Rochester, NY 14627.
