Welcome to E-Commerce and Entrepreneurship!

How would you like to learn how to start your own real on-line business? More and more Americans are finding ways to start and succeed in their own small businesses using the Internet and e-commerce.

Students will have the opportunity to use our advanced computer lab and internet resources to develop an e-commerce business plan. All students who successfully complete this course will leave with a comprehensive business plan and an excellent framework for working in real life scenarios.

Students will also be assigned a technology mentor to help them develop their business plan and other various business operations. These “e-mentors” volunteer their time from a wide variety of companies throughout Long Island. Guest speakers and field trips will be provided throughout the year to enrich course content. This is an excellent course for DECA preparation for regional, state and national competitions. This course is a must for the new millennium!


With the incorporation of the Virtual Enterprises online Intranet, students will simulate real life working conditions and take ownership of their very own corporation, including accounting, marketing, sales, human resources, and personal finance.

Members of this class may elect to take the course for 6 college credits from SUNY Farmingdale.
