High school students from around the state gathered in Pella last week to challenge themselves in the world of business.
The Business Horizons program was hosted at Central College and participants had an opportunity to learn about various aspects of different industries. Ryan Van Maanen, a Pella High School senior this fall, tells KNIA/KRLS News students paired with one another to take junk and turn it into a product they would pitch at the end of the experience. Van Maanen says different team members had different roles.
Participants in the Business Horizons program had the opportunity to tour local corporations and meet with employees of those industries as part of the experience.
