Our Partners
Business partners play an integral role in helping shape the VE firm, the students, as well as the program at large. Business partners may:
• provide advice and guidance to the students on various business issues during the implementation and development phase of the VE firm;
• provide samples of services, products, forms, policies, pricelists, catalogs, market research, etc., so students have models for their own enterprise;
• provide advice, guidance and in-kind contributions (display materials, sample products) in the development of a firm’s trade fair booth;
• provide mentoring and shadowing opportunities for students and teachers;
• host paid, professional internships;
• arrange field trips to their company;
• deliver student and/or teacher workshops;
• review and support VE curricula;
• serve as a judge at a VE competition.

The following partners support the Virtual Enterprises, International Program networks across the United States. We owe them our gratitude for their commitment to helping young people make the transition from school to career and for helping to prepare the next generation of our workforce.
