Taking Entrepreneurship Courses in Malaysia

sarawakyes.com March 4, 2021

Entrepreneurship is a thriving mode of industry, with startup companies across the globe gaining traction. As interest in entrepreneurship grows, so does the academic training programmes.

For those who are interested in taking entrepreneurship courses, regardless if you’re already running a business, considering training programmes or just aren’t sure, taking an entrepreneurship course is a good decision.

In these hard times where many have been dismissed from their jobs, some have turned to starting their own business in order to manage their finances.

Malaysia offers many entrepreneurship training courses from renowned academic institutions and government agencies. These training courses aim to enhance entrepreneurial knowledge and skills needed to develop a business.

Tertiary institutions including Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR), University Kuala Lumpur and Sunway University offer academic entrepreneurship programmes, while government agencies such as Majlis Amanah Rakyat (MARA), Perbadanan Usahawan Nasional Berhad (PUNB) and others offer entrepreneurship training.

Academic institution UTAR offers a Bachelor of Business Administration (Hons) Entrepreneurship degree which aims to advance the entrepreneurial spirit in students by preparing them with the essential knowledge and skills to embark on a journey of entrepreneurship.

MARA conducts an entrepreneurial training programme known as the Structured Training Programme for existing and aspiring entrepreneurs to develop and enhance their capacity and self-sufficiency as an entrepreneur.

Undergoing entrepreneurship training programmes allows you to build your network. Going into a startup venture can be very taxing and often may not bear fruit, especially if you’re doing it alone.

Having peers and teachers to ask questions off of enables you to identify potential mistakes to avoid. Making successful connections with other like-minded people and those in the industry can help out those starting their business and the growth of existing businesses.

Although you may not want a career in business, having an entrepreneurship certificate will help you have an edge over future endeavours as well by having an understanding of an industry.

Having a passion for any business venture is not just enough, because you need the know-how for success. Entrepreneurship education is very important to ensure business growth and success.

Professors and mentors in entrepreneurship programmes have tried, failed and succeeded in their fields, and know how to help you get started. Learning the groundwork of a startup venture is essential to success and not losing time and money.

Not everybody knows that they want to be an entrepreneur, which is why entry-level entrepreneurial classes provides the opportunity to gain some exposure to starting a business and even find some room for trying it out.

Taking classes in entrepreneurship will let you know if it’s for you or not. With the information gained, knowing what you can do is important because it may help you launch a startup or let you progress onto other careers.
