ENTREPRENEURIAL AWARENESS CAMP The employment opportunities for diploma holders especially in public sector are dwindling. The diploma holders need to explore the possibilities of becoming entrepreneurs. For this, they must be acquainted with entrepreneurship development, scope of setting up small-scale industry, existing business opportunities, financial support available and various aspects of managing business. In this context, an entrepreneurial awareness camp is suggested. During the camp, experts from various organizations such as banks, financial corporations, service institutes etc. may be invited to deliver expert lectures. Successful entrepreneurs may also be invited to interact with the students. Students may be encouraged to read papers or give seminar during the camp on Entrepreneurship Development related topics. The camp is to be organized at a stretch for two to three days during fourth semester. Lectures will be delivered on the following broad topics. There will be no examination for this subject 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Who is an entrepreneur? Need for entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial career and self employment Scenario of development of small scale industries in India Entrepreneurial history in India, Indian values and entrepreneurship Assistance from District Industries Centres, Commercial Banks, State Financial Corporations, Small industries Service Institutes, Research and Development Laboratories and other Financial and Development Corporations Considerations for product selection Opportunities for business, service and industrial ventures Learning from Indian experiences in entrepreneurship (Interaction with successful entrepreneurs) Legal aspects of small business Managerial aspects of small business
