This specialized program enables students to learn business organization as well as operation skills and techniques in a realistic business setting.

Traditional classroom instruction in marketing, merchandising, and management is enhanced by the opportunity for students to meet and work with professionals in the mall businesses. Students attend their base schools for regular classes and then travel to Springfield, Fair Oaks, or Tysons Corner Center shopping malls for both classroom instruction and related on-the-job training. The student-operated Santa's Little Helpers store at Springfield Mall offers additional opportunities for real-life entrepreneurial experiences. Due to the unique structure of this program, excellent attendance is mandatory. While enrolled in the course, the student is an active member of DECA, an association of marketing students.
