Phase 2 Workshop Schedule
Three key business workshops are provided to help transform your idea into a business start-up concept. Each topic is offered on three different days so that we can be flexible with your school schedule. Receive coaching from local business professionals who will provide personalized advice about your idea. Semi-finalists are highly encouraged to attend at least one of these workshops to develop their idea, understand your customer, and learn how to be profitable.
All workshops will be at the Humboldt County Office of Education, 901 Myrtle Avenue, Eureka, except the April 1-5 coaching sessions. Depending on your interest, April 1-5th will offer a lunchtime workshop at your school. No other workshops are offered after April 5th.
Note: If you have your own laptop or tablet, we recommend bringing it with you. We will have some Chromebooks available for checkout during workshops for those who need them.
Your answer set to the 13 Questions must be uploaded to this website by Friday, April 12 at 5 p.m.
