The flexible schedule (Flex Class) allows your learners to watch the pre-recorded videos and do them at a time that is FUN for them! You can also spend extra time on the topics your child is most interested in. Since this is a flex class with no live meetings, students can log in at a convenient time to complete the week's lesson. We will be going through each week as a group and I will post the lesson weekly (depending on which day you started).

No experience is required to take this class.

In this 7 week flex class we will talk about what it means to plan, start, build and own a gaming business. How to Make Money From Video Games Like Minecraft Fortnite Roblox Seriously - Playing, Developing, Marketing, Blogging and so much more. How to take an idea, a hobby you love and make money from it, and specifically how to understand the financial aspect of owning and running a gaming business.

Students will be provided with 7 separate videos to watch for each topic. These are outlined below. 

The videos will contain the information required to give students a good understanding of each topic, and each one will include homework for the students to undertake during the week. Homework assignments will include writing a list of topics, interests, and areas of expertise in which the students might be interested in developing a business. There will also be research assignments into how to choose a business name, the importance of color when selecting a logo, the difference between product and service companies, and the different forms of business funding available. 

After watching each video and completing the homework assignments, students will be provided with feedback and the specific next steps to make their business vision a reality, including how to write a business plan.
