In today’s episode, we are talking with the 2021 recipient of the TSBA Award for Excellence in Education Program: the Entrepreneurship & Innovation Center (EIC). The EIC offers a unique opportunity for students in grades 10-12 at Williamson County Schools to gain hands-on experience in entrepreneurship and innovation by starting a business, launching a product, or offering a service. Dr. Jeremy Qualls, CTE Director; Clay Banks, EIC Mentor; and Paula Chilton, Assistant CTE Director join us to discuss the benefits of this program and explain how other districts can set up a similar program in their schools.
