Course Description:
With more than half of the new jobs being created in the world economy by small businesses, the
particular problems and experiences encountered in starting and developing new enterprises are
clearly worth studying. This course of Entrepreneurship has been designed to provide the
participants with an overall understanding of the concept of entrepreneurship and small business
management. Participants will be prepared to start, survive, and succeed in their own businesses.
The course puts a strong emphasis on the development of a real world, workable, implementable
business plan that applies the proper methods, techniques and skills needed for successfully
developing and growing a new venture. While some theory will be explored, the major thrust of
this course will be to ensure that the primary product of the course, the Business Plan, and other
assignments which have immediate and real world application.
This course is about learning of risk and failure and growing from it. It is about learning to forge
one’s ideas into workable business concepts, commit them to paper, and flesh them out into a
reasonable form that can be tested to see if it could stand up to the demands of the market. The
students must write at a top level, argue the potential of their ideas, and convince investors that
their ideas are worth being born in the marketplace.
