The Vantage Program with Ron Kamps and Charlie Kanan

Our Program  on November 29th was on the new program added to the curriculum at Minnetonka High: the Vantage Global Business Course. The presentation was made by Ron Kamps and Charlie Kanan. The program was originated in the Overland Park, Kansas, district, and is available only there and at Minnetonka. 200 students applied for the course, but only 38 were accepted.

The Vantage program is a year-long, three credit course of study where students learn through case studies, business partner directed projects and immersion in a professional-based program. In addition to working with businesses, they will have a series of lectures from many major internationally-known companies.                             

This is the first year of the program, and next year they hope to extend it to cover experiences in engineering, health services and media.
