Fox Awarded Scholarship for Entrepreneurship Education Forum
Dr. Joseph Fox, Business Administration Chair, presents "Bridging the Entrepreneurial Divide" during the 26th Annual Entrepreneurship Education Forum Nov. 7-11 in Austin, Texas.
Dr. Joseph Fox, Business Administration Chair, was awarded a full scholarship to attend the 26th Annual Entrepreneurship Education Forum Nov. 7-11 in Austin, Texas.
The scholarship was awarded for Fox's leadership and creativity in bringing entrepreneurship education to A-B Tech and the community. He also was one of the presenters at the forum. His presentation, "Bridging the Entrepreneurial Divide," focused on establishing a seamless transition of entrepreneurial education from middle school to high school to the community college and ending at the four-year college level.
Fox discussed the vision of A-B Tech's new Entrepreneurship program to create a regional entrepreneurial spirit throughout Western North Carolina and the College's entrepreneurial model, as well as strategies to foster regional partnerships.
The Consortium for Entrepreneurship Education is a national membership association of 95 organizations that advocate entrepreneurship education as a lifelong learning process and provide programs for youth and adults. The conference in Austin brought more than 350 teachers together to share program ideas and establish nationwide networks.
Tech Talk is published by the Communications Office for employees and friends of Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College.
