Been looking for knowledge to start your own business? Maybe you should prep early and participate in Kevin Liles two-week entrepreneurship course at Morgan State Univerity this week in Baltimore, Maryland. The music mogul founded the Make It Happen Summer Business Academies, an educational program for 30 specially selected 10th and 11th graders.

The program will provide the youth with skills and tools they need to be successful in business, and to eventually pursue a higher education. Kevin Liles stated:

It is our responsibility to provide a platform for the next generation of leaders. At the MIHF Summer Business Academy, we plan to provide young passionate teens with the tools necessary to be entrepreneurs, innovators and future CEOs of corporations. In my continued efforts to make a difference, over the next two weeks participants will not only get educated, they will also get real time experience. I would like to thank my partners at LEAD and Morgan State University for believing in my vision and bringing the Academy to my hometown of Baltimore.

Out of Baltimore? Worry not. According to Kevin, The Make It Happen Foundation will be expanding the business seminar to additional universities and educational institutions worldwide. The course and curriculum was created by the foundation, and they include field trips to local businesses where students can see the application of their studies in real life settings. This will also provide an advantage for the students to start using their networking opportunities provided by Kevin Liles and his company.

Classes have started since yesterday through August 5th at the Morgan State University in Baltimore.
