ENTERPRENEURSHIP EDUCATION IN INDIA India has a pioneering status among developing countries for its early start on a variety of entrepreneurship education programs.For the most part, entrepreneurship education in post-independence India has been center oned on measures designed to encourage self-employment and founding of bantam and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The industrial policy Resolution of 1956 has, for instance, a very strong emphasis on the SME sector. As the economy transitioned from being primarily agrarian into one that has significant portion from other sectors, it was felt that the most pressing requirement was education that would enable need -based entrepreneurs to make forays into these emerging sectors.Consequently, in the 1960s and 70s, entrepreneurship education was almost wholly delivered in the form of training programs, offered by institutions under the aegis of fix and Central political sciences, and by financial institutions receiving support from the judicature. Some of the institutions delivering such programs were * Industrial estates and in common service facilities (like tool rooms) * Training and counseling institutions (NISIET, SISI, TCOs, EDI) * fiscal institutions like SBI, IDBI, TDICI, RCTC, etc. * Development boards (STEPs, EDCs, TBIs)The table below shows the development of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) during the first few post-independence decades. In the 80s, entrepreneurship education continued to revolve around primarily on entrepreneur training aimed at creating self-employment ventures. Like in the 70s, such programs were mostly under the umbrella of Entrepreneurship Educatio n Programs (EEPs) offered by Government agencies, financial institutions and banks. However, recognition of the requirement for a more holistic entrepreneurship education, which include the ecosystem partners, was beginning to grow.The 80s as well saw the entry of entrepreneurship education into technology and worry institutions. At the IIM Ahmedabad, for example, strength members started offering Achievement Motivation Training. Other focusing institutions also began offering similar descents, driven mainly by aptitude interest. However, none of these institutions took on a pioneering role to emerge as a thought-leader. Governmental effort oversaw the founding of an initiative to set up intelligence and Technology Parks (STEPs) and incubation centers at a few reputed practiced institutions.With the advent of liberalization in the 90s, the country saw the potential of entrepreneurship not only as an entry-level employment generator, but also as a means of wealth creation. S uccess stories, especially in the IT sector, were viewed by entrepreneurs as role models. Support for entrepreneurship teaching The latest surveys of the trends of entrepreneurship education in India target that 44,500 students are currently enrolled in entrepreneurship programs across the country. This number is expected to grow at a CAGR of 20. % to reach 54,700 by 2012. The liberalization of the Indian economy in the 1990s has encouraged entrepreneurship in the country by facilitating the reduction of barriers of entry to start businesses, making financing more easily gettable and the setting up of institutions for the development of entrepreneurial talent. Revenues from Entrepreneurship Education Programs reached INR7. 9 meg in 2010 and are estimated to grow at a CAGR of 13. 7% to INR10. 7 billion by 2012 Recent Developments for MSMP in IndiaDISSEMINATOTRS Based on the typeface of organization, disseminators of entrepreneurship education in India can be categorized as follo ws * Government institutions * Academic and training institutes * Banks and financial institutions * Industry associations NGOs Of all the types of knowledge disseminators above, the prevalent sector is indisputably the most important one in India, with the broadest reach, ranging from national-level institutions all the way d bear to grass-roots organizations.The education imparted by the institutions above range the entire gamut of pedagogical choices * Training and diploma programs (both long and short duration) * Term-based courses and electives, Conceptual and introductory lectures * intellect and business plan competitions * Research and consulting projects * Incubation, networking and mentoring facilities * Conferences, seminars and workshops * Journals, newsletters and publications There is mismatch in the Indian entrepreneurship education system, surrounded by what knowledge disseminators are offering, and what entrepreneurs really need.Following are tell apart differen ces between the requirements and what is being delivered in the name of entrepreneurship education in B-schools. digest Though the EEPs presented do target the general community, emerging and established entrepreneurs, the focus seems to be skewed primarily towards developing the emerging entrepreneurs. Indian entrepreneurship education is mainly geared towards the need-driven entrepreneur. This is in line with the recommendations of Porter and Schwab, who argue that in ? actor-driven countries with mainly extractive type economic activity, government attention is best focussed on providing a basic foundation for enabling this activity, rather than, for example, providing cultivate training in opportunity-driven entrepreneurship In India, roughly 13% of the adult working-age population (between the ages of 18 and 64) has received some form of training in jump a business. The chart below shows the percentages of these recipients who undergo this training voluntarily versus compul sorilyCHALLENGES OF shrewd AN EEP Clearly, in fellowship to navigate this variegated network of ideologies, attitudes, skills, teaching methods and judgment tools, etc. there is a pressing need for a poser that would allow the practitioner design an educational program to provide supreme value to both the entrepreneur and to the society in which s/he thrives. There exists a range of tools, traits, motives and attitudes that are required for both the creation and the success of entrepreneurs.Some of the skills required for entrepreneurship to take root, and to develop the knowledge-base for enterprise creation and growth are illustrated in the diagram below. Which of these skills should an EEP include in its curriculum? A clear understanding of the needs of the entrepreneur is required in enjoin for an EEP to be deemed successful by its recipients. Similarly, among other considerations, the design of an EEP must also be cognizant of ? The type of disseminator(s) that will deli ver the EEP.For example, a course designed for delivery by a high school is probably to have different constraints that one designed for dissemination by a corporate entity. ? The pedagogy best suited for the EEP under consideration (training program, diary article, seminar, etc. ). ? The delivery mechanism (classroom atmosphere, television broadcast, reading material, etc. ). ? living models and success stories from India and abroad. Case studies can serve as springboards for new programs, and neutralise having to rediscover well established approaches. Success metrics or ways of measuring effectiveness. In addition, an EEP must also be aware of how it baron fit into the curriculum at primary, secondary and higher educational levels, of how to turn back best practices from previous programs, deciding whether it is necessary to assess and accredit entrepreneurship education, the implications of the linkages between business and education, etc. FACTORS IN SUCCESS OF EEP ARE - C learly, in order to navigate this variegated network of ideologies, attitudes, skills, teaching methods and assessment tools, etc. here is a pressing need for a framework that would allow the practitioner design an educational program to provide maximum value to both the entrepreneur and to the society in which s/he thrives. RE-ENGINEERING PROCESS animate Practices Re-engineering Prevalent only at higher levels of education Should be introduced at lower level also. EEP is not sufficiently differentiated from business focus education in many institutions. Clear and specific curriculum should be introduced for both. Limited focus on research and publications More focus should be hand overn to research and publications No degree awarding programs at academe Degree awarding programs should be introduced at academia. Lack of experienced faculty Experienced faculty should be recruited and training should be imparted to existing faculty. fainthearted linkages of University and R&D centers with entrepreneurs. Linkages should be improved. Absence of mentor pool at all stages. Mentor should be provided. Policies are not responsive. Policies need to be more responsive to emerging trends, both local and international. Overall state of affairs is confused. Should have clear and broad vision, goals and systematic planning. Missing culture of educating long term impact. Training in specific skills should be introduced and also aspects of ethics, risk taking, social responsibilities, etc. RECOMMENDATIONS * Teachers should be recruited, trained and re-trained in the landing field of entrepreneurship education. They should be sponsored to attend local and international conferences to bewilder more knowledge so that they can effectively impart the entrepreneurial skills to the students. The university management should pass some NGOs or banks to give soft loans/grants to entrepreneurship educators to establish and run their own businesses. This will enable th em to acquire practical experience from their own initiatives for frontward transmission to business education students. * Business education students should be soundly taught how to troubleshoot, service, maintain computer and other related office jibement. They should also be provided with adequate information about starting a new business and about business trends in order to minimize future risks and maximize success rates.This will help them to establish consultancy firms to sell and service the computers and other office related equipment, and also run business centres. * The department of business education should constantly organize workshops for the students and invite successful businessmen and women to give talk on how to initiate, source for funds, start and run a business successfully. * The students should be made to go on attachment to successful entrepreneurs for a period of three months.This will also help them to practically acquire entrepreneurial skills that w ill enable them initiate, establish and run their businesses after graduation. * In order to help the students to raise capital to run an enterprise, they should be grouped. each group will contribute money to rent a shop, equip it and run it for their practical.
