Iwate-Aomori JALT:

Education as a Business: School Owner Simulator

Date: Sunday, December 11th, 2016 Time: 1:30 PM - 4:30 PM

Speaker: Ryan Hagglund (MY English School)

Description:
Most teachers at some time have thought about running their own language school, or wondered what it would be like. What would it entail? What might a successful model be? How might it differ from education in the non-profit world? This presentation will utilize a simulation style to highlight challenges and benefits unique to for-profit language schools. Participants will engage in decision-making scenarios and opportunities, observing how they affect both the educational and financial aspects of education as a business.
