For what ?

For rolling out “ Entrepreneurship  Curriculum “ pilot project in Class 9 to 12 in Govt schools

As reported in :

Entrepreneurship to be taught in Govt schools from April 

 

Highlights :

Shri Sisodiaji said,

Unemployment is one of the biggest problems being faced by our country.

The problem with education is that in all schools and colleges, we are giving education to our next generation just to seek jobs.

Biggest question today is where are the job providers ? 

I have seen entrepreneurship programmes being carried out at various levels in some Universities and Schools but they are treating entrepreneurship as a skill and not as a mindset

That is why, despite so many programmes at various levels, we have not been able to produce entrepreneurship mind set who will ultimately become job providers in the society. This is a big lacuna.

If we can produce large-scale entrepreneurs in our country then they will not only solve the problem of unemployment but also will help the economy grow very fast

Context :

On  19  Oct  2015 , I sent following email to Cabinet Ministers / NITI Aayog :

TEN MILLION ENTREPRENEURS ? 

Extract :

Some naysayers are bound to say :

"   But entrepreneurship cannot be taught

    Either it is in your blood or it is not  "

Then they will try to support their argument by citing Bania communities

Accepting this argument , would be a defeatist attitude !

Here is how we can produce a generation of ENTREPRENEURS , 5 years from now ( if we start NOW ) :

·         Introduce " Entrepreneurship " as an mandatory subject in High Schools

     and Colleges

·         Each such School / College to be " Adopted " by a Corporate ( CSR ? )

·         Each adopting Corporate will bear the full expense of running this

     course ( Teachers' Salaries etc )

·         Such expense to be tax-exempt ( or offset as Corporate CSR obligation )

·         Exams to be in the form of presentation by teams of final year students

     on,

    " HERE   IS   A   BUSINESS   I   PLAN   TO   START "

·         Presentations to be judged by Panels of Venture Capitalists / Angel

     Investors / Incubators etc

·         Winning teams ( 1st / 2nd / 3rd  prize ) , to be offered funds by the

     Panel Members ( as seen in some TV programs )

·         Fund amounts should be small ( Max Rs 100 lakhs ) and preference to

     be given to projects involving healthcare / education / manufacturing /

     agriculture / food processing etc

·         Winning Teams , setting up Start Ups with these VC funds , to be

     encouraged to hire graduating students from the non-winning teams

·         This " encouragement " to be in the form of reimbursement of salaries of

     such hires ( only such hires ), under  " Employment Generation Subsidy "

     from concerned State Government , where this Start Up gets registered ,

     since , employment is a State Subject

·         Such Salary-reimbursements  will be for first 3 years of Start Up

·         To create an entire  GENERATION of ENTREPRENEURS , we need to start at the roots

·         Some years later , when this FIRST generation becomes parents of their own 10 year olds, those SECOND generation youngsters will have entrepreneurship in their genes

·         This is one way of preparing a GM ( genetically modified ) Generation , to which , there ought to be all round support

Dear Shri Sisodiaji,

Congratulations on this initiative to re-orient the very FOCUS of our Education System from producing “ Job Seekers “ to “ Job Generators “

If adopted universally ( - with incorporation of my above-mentioned suggestions ) all over India ( by all the State Governments ) , we would have ready by 2025,

 

GM GENERATION of ENTREPRENEURS
