We are so proud to be supporting this initiative once more again this year in County Kilkenny - The Junior Entrepreneur Programme (JEP). Its a not-for-profit initiative that helps children in 5th & 6th Class develop their own business. JEP provides everything that is required to run the programme including a step-by-step Teacher’s Guide. During the programme children use their creativity to come up with business ideas, they choose one idea and then work to turn it into reality over a 10-12 week period. They’ve got to do the hard work – researching what customers really want, working out their costs and how much to charge for it. They figure out what they’re good at and try to use those skills to play their part in a team. Along the way, they’ve got the support of their classmates, teachers and family. Through the programme, pupils get a clear picture of what creating a business involves. Weve had great success with this programme in Kilkenny last year, and are delight to be supporting it again. If you have, or know of, any children in primary school who would like to participate - check out bit.ly/1u0o9FQ vimeo/101600149 #JEP #Nevertooyoung
