The Need for Entrepreneurial Education

90% of students linked learning entrepreneurial skills to academic success in other subject areas. 95% of the students indicated that the entrepreneurial skills would help them in their life.

Colleges are turning to entrepreneurship education to produce work-ready graduates and next-generation innovators through experiential learning with the entrepreneurial process, preparing students to apply knowledge, skills, and judgment in uncertain environments.

Current research indicates the need to invest in and scale entrepreneurship education as business creation is not the only beneficial outcome of entrepreneurship education. Entrepreneurship is a key 21st century workforce skill and is also linked to higher academic achievement.

"DC Kid's focus on youth entrepreneurship is spot on - expanding the skills and perspectives of our youth not only increases their own self-confidence and the likelihood of success but also empowers local communities and promotes community transformation from the inside out. Our youth are our greatest resource - DC Kid's approach to stimulating, facilitating, and supporting their creativity is exactly what is needed now to sustain stable and productive families and communities in the years to come."

We provide an experience designed for mastery, not just performance. That's why we're dedicated to helping the next generation use entrepreneurship to create more options and philanthropy to solve our nation's most challenging problems. While our students may not solve food insecurity, cure diseases, mitigate climate change, or achieve interplanetary travel, they will have the mindset and skills to know it's possible.”
