The Brookfield Career and Technical Education department developed a program that allows students  to start and run their own business and use the profits to help support their participating clubs. Through the purchase of a Laser Engraver/Cutter, students will use the equipment to make their own products that they can then sell to other clubs, students and the community.  Students will have to research, develop, create and market a product for their laser engraving-cutting business. Students will learn about business structure, evaluating demand, calculating pricing, marketing, production and distribution and sales.

This program emphasizes Brookfield High School’s core values of research, critical thinking, communication, collaboration and active involvement.
