Fostering Entrepreneurship in Schools
-- By Niti/Nitin Chopra, Career Counsellor In today's rapidly evolving world, students need more than just academic knowledge—they need the skills to adapt, innovate, and lead. Introducing entrepreneurship education in schools can foster creativity and prepare students to navigate real-world challenges. This form of education nurtures critical thinking, resilience, and adaptability. It teaches students to view failure as a stepping stone and empowers them with confidence and independence. Through projects, simulations, and real-life problem solving, students learn how to build solutions and explore multiple career pathways. Moreover, entrepreneurship education enhances employability by encouraging goal setting, teamwork, and communication. It opens doors to a variety of professional opportunities, both in business and beyond. By planting the seeds of enterprise early on, we prepare youth not just for jobs but to become job creators. Schools must embrace this shift to help build an innovative and self-reliant generation.
