About the Course and APSI Session Description: 

AP Business with Personal Finance is a yearlong high school business and personal finance course that aligns closely with a college-level introduction to business course. Students explore the business disciplines of entrepreneurship, marketing, finance, accounting, and management through real-world business applications, case studies, and project based learning. In addition, students learn and apply all the National Standards for Personal Financial Education created by the Council for Economic Education and the Jump$tart Coalition for Personal Financial Literacy. 

This new career course gives students the tools to take control of their careers, understand how businesses shape the world, and make confident, informed decisions.

This program is an interactive professional development experience. It includes an AP Summer Institute and optional online support sessions focused on implementing a project based learning approach in an AP classroom. 

Project Implementation Guides: Provide adaptable course planning and pacing, recommended assessments and assignments that encompass the entirety of the course.
