Courses are available to all irrespective
of race, colour, politics, religion, sex or age. The only qualification
is a determination and enthusiasm to improve ones circumstances.
The courses are practical and hands on, with a minimum f academic
learning. During the courses are things that will be sold. The value of
profit and labour component of the product will be credited to the
account of the pupil and will be used for the purchase of any capital
plant needed to allow the continuation of the pupils business after the
course. The balance i.e. material costs, will be used to purchases more
raw materials.
How the system
works.
Assessment procedure,
establish aptitude (preferably undertaken by a specialist),
discover spectrum of industries,
residencies,
geography,
topography and other important factors of the area where the student
comes from, including demographics and socio-economic range and ratio.
Students will either work on a project
which they choose or will be given a project from the list of over 100
possible enterprises commensurate with their aptitude and interest in
order to learn the principles which are important to entrepreneurial success. We then proceed step by step together to make the project
a viable and profitable venture. We will concentrate on projects that can
be undertaken in rural areas to slow down the mass migration to urban
areas where the families are likely to live in poverty and squalor and
where there are pressures to become involved in crime and drugs. The
course will give the student leads on how to identify an entreneurial opportunity and what makes a successful entrepreneur.
