This past week the Entrepreneurship Centre successfully conducted its first Micro-MBA Program. The program is a one week course in which participants learn relevant skills related to starting and running a small business. These skills range from market demand analysis to financial management. Twenty-one entrepreneurs participated in the program representing various types of businesses; hair styling, catering, shoe making, and IT services just to name a few. Not only did participants learn from the course material, but they also learned from each other as they discussed the challenges they have faced in starting up and running a small business.
Although the initial training week is over, we will continue to provide consultation to all the participants as they start up or continue to run their business. Due to the program’s success we are already planning to run it again in the next few months.
