GriffithBUSINESS Ambassadors Program provides a unique opportunity for high school students to expand their understanding of the business world and develop real-life enterprise skills. Open to year 10 and 11 students studying a business subject, or students interested in business as a career, the program explores one relevant business topic in each seminar.
On Wednesday 5 June, students will join Associate Professor Mark Brimble in exploring the topic of Financial Literacy. They will experience a presentation on the topic, followed by a panel question and answer session to determine ‘Are you smarter than an academic?’. Students then complete an interactive activity based on the day’s topic working with students from other schools to generate a response to the task.
As part of the day, students are also provided with information about degrees at Griffith University that align with the topic, as well as other information about tertiary study options.
The program aims to develop real life enterprise skills, business knowledge and understanding through connecting secondary schools with Griffith University. The Ambassadors Program provides a valuable educational setting, where learning is more relevant and real, and works to create partnerships between teachers, academics and students to better prepare our future workforce.
