Young Entrepreneurs Development Programme
If you are aged between 20 and 35 and think you have entrepreneurial ideas for business, why not join our Young Entrepreneurs Development Programme designed to give you the essential skills of conceptualising, planning, starting-up or expanding an existing business.
The Young Entrepreneurs Development Program is specifically designed to develop enthusiastic and resourceful entrepreneurs out of young men and women who may not have much of an understanding of entrepreneurship and business development.
Developing Competent Entrepreneurs
Our aim is to develop a more informed, skilled, competent and innovative entrepreneur who would have the essential elements for success in a highly competitive business environment, very different from the run-of-the-mill entrepreneurs who start up a business without adequate training and capacities only to see their ventures fail within a short period.
This Programme is unique because it is gritted with a solid academic background on entrepreneurship and built around all the essential skills of conceptualising, planning, starting-up or expanding an existing business.
