Educator Development
Y4B Teachers and Staff at the start of the 2021-2022 school year
Our teachers are simply incredible. Several have been with our organization since 2009! Others were students that went through the Youth 4 Business course and have come back to invest in the next generation. The majority own their own businesses.
Youth 4 Business seeks to provide quality continuing education and resources to our valuable educators. We do this in several ways. First, our staff regularly visits each teacher during their weekly class time to provide support and instruction. The teachers receive feedback on their teaching methods so that the students receive the best education possible from the Youth 4 Business program. Second, Youth 4 Business has begun to hold an annual teacher conference. During the one-day event the teachers receive training not only on the Youth 4 Business program, but also additional educator training. Youth 4 Business recently hired Pastor Evilio, a professional in education and statistics. Pastor Evilio is a great asset to the organization in his support and encouragement of our teachers.

Alumni Connections
Youth 4 Business strives to continue to connect with and encourage our alumni student entrepreneurs. Youth 4 Business includes former students as guests speakers at our conferences and in the classrooms. We have recently developed a WhatsApp group for the purpose of connecting former students with each other.
