EMC – A vision towards future
The significance of entrepreneurship education in KG-12 Schools have become widely recognized in recent times. It is now emerging as one of
the fastest growing fields across the globe, for bringing in a positive impact on economic growth and employment opportunities.
Entrepreneurship education should start from an early age, advancing gradually through all levels of education, to inculcate a process of
lifelong learning in students. Realizing the need, the draft National Education Policy 2019 (NEP) of India has outlined some special steps that
needs to be taken to incorporate it in the School curriculum. Developing knowledge on entrepreneurship need not make a person an
entrepreneur, but it will definitely nurture an enterprising mindset which leads one towards excellence in school and beyond the school years.
Similarly, entrepreneurship is not confined to economic activities and creation of start-ups, it embraces other areas of life, like stimulating
students to think creatively and aspiringly.
