"I want to get an inside look at local businesses. I plan on attending SIU Edwardsville for a business degree, and when I graduate, I want to manage my parents’ business, Pyramid Marble and Granite. I think this class has endless opportunities. It could open new doors for my career and life. I am blessed to reside in a town where the CEO teachers and business owners are willing to invest their time, money, and knowledge into this program. I know CEO will help prepare me for my future."

Mariah BushueCEO Student Class of 2015

This class has changed me so much I forget how I used to be. It has changed how I think, communicate, and how I handle people. I never would have thought I would be able to talk to business people as I do. CEO has changed my entire outlook on life and I am very grateful for that.

Jordan MammoserJasper CEO Class of 2015

The CEO class has taught me how to be a more beneficial and efficient leader for our community. In addition, it has brought many exciting learning experiences and has given me a better outlook for the future of myself being involved in the community. Not all businesses come in a can, a business must adapt to its marketing area with supply and demand.
