In today’s rapidly evolving world, schools are looking beyond traditional academics to prepare students for dynamic futures. Entrepreneurship education is emerging as a key driver for empowering young people with the skills, mindset, and resilience they’ll need to lead and innovate. By integrating entrepreneurship curriculum, private schools can further equip students with real-world abilities—like problem-solving, leadership, and adaptability—to amplify future readiness.
Prepare Your Students: Essential Skills for the Future Workforce
Students today need more than content knowledge—they need resilience, agility, creativity, and leadership to succeed. Uncharted Learning entrepreneurship programs ensure students develop these capabilities through immersive, real-world experiences that extend beyond the classroom, and put students in the driver's seat.
“Kids aren't just learning about business, they're doing business.”

Entrepreneur skills like critical thinking, innovation, and financial literacy can be foundational for success, not only for budding entrepreneurs but for anyone entering today’s dynamic workplace. Entrepreneurship education can give students the competitive edge to adapt to change, collaborate effectively, and lead confidently, regardless of their chosen career paths.
"We hear from INCubatoredu alumni that these entrepreneur skills helped them become better in a comp sci career, for example, or reaching a higher position in a company.”

Engage Your Alumni: Building Lasting Connections
Entrepreneurship can be a framework for creating lasting, high-impact and meaningful relationships. In the INCubatoredu high school entrepreneurship course, students connect with alumni and community mentors and coaches who offer support and guidance to students as they navigate their entrepreneurial journey.
“I'm a graduate of Providence from 1997, and I wanted to give back to my high school. It's one of those classes that prepares you for your next step in life, whether you're going into business or something else. It’s been very motivating for me every week to see what the kids are learning, and I've actually learned a lot as well.
~ Alumni, Mentor, Providence Catholic High School
Students gain exposure to various careers, including marketing, finance, law, and product design. These mentors bring real-world perspectives into the classroom, guiding students as they learn directly from experts in different fields. Students build essential professional networks, establishing social capital that can lead to further opportunities, like internships, apprenticeships, and job shadowing.
"Great minds and people with a lot of experience come to help, and it's cool that they're helping us high school students prepare for the real world."
~ INCubatoredu student, Providence Catholic High School
For schools, inviting alumni back into the classroom provides a dynamic way to foster alumni engagement, strengthening school pride and community ties. This experience can bridge the gap between past and present students to cultivate a thriving community of lifelong learners and contributors.
“Through INCubatoredu, we can engage with our community and establish meaningful connections with our alumni and parents.”
~ Scott Tabernacki, Principal, Mount Carmel High School
Differentiate Your School in a Changing Educational Landscape
As private schools seek new families and student enrollment, offering a curriculum that addresses students' future readiness, regardless of path, can be a crucial advantage. A rigorous entrepreneurship program provides students with both business fundamentals and also durable skills, empowering them to shape their own futures.
“I have some knowledge about business, but this class is unique, and you learn so much more…I love going to INCubatoredu events to network.”
~ David, F., INCubatoredu Student, Mount Carmel High School
“For me as the Principal, and as a leader of our faculty and staff, we must reevaluate what we do here to remain relevant and competitive.”
~ Scott Tabernacki, Principal, Mount Carmel High School
Through entrepreneurship, students gain hands-on experience with planning, testing, iterating, and pitching ideas, and ‘failing’ along the way. Schools that provide these experiences offer something unique—a chance for students to apply their learning in tangible, impactful ways.
“Through INCubatoredu, we can teach concepts like failing forward and having a grit mentality. This happens on a daily basis, and our parents really respond to that.”
~ Scott Tabernacki, Principal, Mount Carmel High School
In today’s competitive educational landscape, this approach helps schools stand out to families who value education that prioritizes rigor, character development and career readiness.
