Capstone – Project
Outsourced Elementary Curriculum Provider Competitive Analysis
A Collaboration Between
In the last year, Practice Makes Perfect has entered the year-round student support services market (i.e. Saturday Academy programs, After school enrichment programs, Intensive Tutoring during the day and after school, push-ins and pull-outs, etc.) and is interested in learning about others who are in the space to best position its services and maximize the opportunity. The ideal outcome of the project would be to provide PMP with a strong and differentiated go-to-market strategy to propel the organization’s long-term success.
Students who enroll in this course will:
- Describe how a social enterprise navigates city bureaucracy to serve low-income students and families.
- Analyze the internal and external forces that influence the triple bottom line for a small education company.
- Experience the inner-workings of low-income public schools across some of NYC’s most disadvantaged neighborhoods.
- Create a marketing strategy for an education company working with some of the U.S.’ most vulnerable populations.
