Curriculum Overview

I learned different ways to manage my money and how I can save or use it that will help me in the future. I learned dining etiquette the mentors there always made sure everyone was involved I appreciated that because without them doing that I would’ve just been around watching.

During my time participating in Aspire Detroit I was exposed to many different tools and skills that I will continue to use. Aspire itself opened my mind to many things I would have never considered before participating.

Navan G.

Before the Aspire Program I had a problem with self reflection. I thought that I was a pretty smart person when it came to building relationships with people for business reasons or just in general. The Aspire program taught me that I have a lot more to learn when it comes to business and personal growth.

My take on the program was an extension of the life after high school. It taught us how to do things that the school wasn’t.

I think this program was an underrated blessing to me. Not only was I taught the necessary procedures and skills needed to enter the business world, but I also learned skills that could be useful in the pursuit of my degree and the professional situations that I will encounter in the future. Overall, this program has been incredible and I’d recommend it to anyone who wants to better themselves.

When think about Aspire, I think it’s good. It taught me a whole bunch of new things that I didn’t learn in other schools or through my parents and I think it’s amazing, I am very grateful to be a part of it. My favorite part of the program was learning more about manners, things I did not know, and how others will take it.

Landon T.

For someone who didn’t have a father growing up or someone to teach manners and things like that, I think this is a great program to be in.

DaJohn A.

Aspire taught me a lot that I did not know. Common things like being consistent, greeting people, and being respectful. I also learned how to become financial stable and not making bad mistakes or taking risks that might lead to future failures.

Kairre D.

The most valuable thing I learned was how to properly budget and develop core values.
