| Hello and welcome to the second issue of the Marketplace Community Newsletter! The purpose of the newsletter is to provide progressive educators and business professionals with valuable information and materials that enhance the utility of the online learning tools, competitions, and business simulations that are our specialty. We want the Marketplace Community Newsletter to be a clearinghouse for news, knowledge, advice, data, and methods to make business and marketing skills easier to teach and more fun to learn. If you have news, ideas, or questions you’d like to share, please send them to us.
In this issue you will find:
