The Nigeria government through the
ministry of education in
2011 made compulsory 32 vocational subjects at the
secondary level where every school must choose three of these
vocational
subjects.
With this development, there should be a rise in the number of vocational institutions in the country as schools
With this development, there should be a rise in the number of vocational institutions in the country as schools
will be unable to drive all these
subjects as parents and the
students will want it. Besides this proliferation,
there is a dart in
the interest of the younger generation as many are seeking
alternative skill acquisition or just seeking easier or faster
means of wealth
creation.
Among the many schools that will make
the next level of entrepreneurs who we call ''the edupreneurs'' wealthy or
simply
successful are:
1.
Vocational schools:
these schools will be so competitive in the few years to come it will be as
congested as the primary and secondary schools in Ota and Lagos Nigeria as we
have it today. With the interest of the youth and teenagers growing in area like
tailoring, fashion design/garment making, beauty schools, catering, and other
hand works. Vocational schools are the future. And by future am speaking of 2 to 5
years from now before the saturation will become unbearable. You can take a
walk around your neighborhood and notice the number of tailoring houses
upgrading to fashion schools and hair dressing houses also upgrading to beauty
house. As times goes by, all they need will be a modified curriculum and an articulated scheme and syllabus which ''the edupreneur'' team is already making and developing to suit the need and aspiration of the emerging school business owners.
DANCE ACADEMY: the school for those who just
love to dance. And as times goes on, even those who want to lose weight will
join as a form of weight lost therapy.
FOOTBALL ACADEMY: for the geeks who love
football and just love to play with the leather ball. Even though, there are many
football academy in the country already, many more will still be established to
create room to accommodate the ever increasing population and interest for football.
BUSINESS ACADEMY: As many will be streaming to become better entrepreneurs, there will be a need to become trained and retrained to adapt to the changes that technological advancement will throw at us.
OTHERS TYPE OF SCHOOLS: theses includes but not limited to
bible schools, hotel management academies etc.
The dynamism is the intriguing thing. the chance to make choices among varying options... the opportunity to become a specialist at whatever skill and career you choose makes the emerging school business owners really interesting for the edupreneur.
Welcome to the Edupreneur: we epitomize the future, we have created and still creating business solutions, innovations and strategies to make our clients (the school owners) better positioned to adapt and survive as the changes emerge to make the emerging school businesses.
