Michigan Business Group offers a structured weekly new member education program designed to equip students with the foundational knowledge, skills, and support needed to pursue careers in business. Through interactive workshops and hands-on sessions, members are introduced to key industry paths including consulting, marketing, and finance. Our curriculum emphasizes both professional development and skill-building, covering topics such as resume and LinkedIn optimization, Excel, casing and mock interviews, and project-based skills relevant to consulting and marketing. Members also participate in activities focused on public speaking, presenting, and collaboration, helping them build both confidence and soft skills. 

​

Beyond technical training, MBG fosters a strong sense of community and mentorship. Each new member is paired with a board mentor, or “board buddy,” and has access to a broader mentorship network that includes senior advisors who offer industry insights, internship guidance, and career advice. Weekly programming is also complemented by coffee chats with peers and leadership, giving members the opportunity to form meaningful connections, learn from others’ experiences, and feel supported as they navigate both MBG and their professional journeys.
