Info Session Day - Entrepreneurial Knowledgebase

Centre for Education and Society Advancement, a Belgrade-base association, has been implementing project "Entrepreneurial Knowledgebase" whose aim is create an entrepreneurial attitude and to help young people develop creative thinking, initiative, pro-activity and decision making skills in their social and work life to increase prospects on the labour market.

In May 2016 we organised a training course to upgrade the professional competencies of 30 youth leaders/practitioners of youth work from 9 European countries to organise quality youth projects developing sense of initiative and entrepreneurship among youth by engaging them in a stimulative learning opportunity to exchange knowledege, experience and learn new methods for entrepeneurial education.

In October 2016 we organised a youth exchange for 42 young people from 8 European countries to help them develop sense of entrepreneurship and creative thinking and supply with a concrete skill that could serves as a base for developing creativity and pursuing further venture projects.

During the Global Entrepreneurship Week together with our partners from Hungary, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Italy, Turkey, UK, Montenegro and Slovakia we organise in each of the countries an Info Session Day on Entrepreneurship and Erasmus+ opportunities. The specific goal of the Info sessions is to raise general awareness of the importance of the entrepreneurship and its potential for youth employment and achieving economic, political, social or environmental goals, as well as develop sense of belonging to global community and to ignite mobilization of young people for fight for their future.

In Belgrade, Serbia the Info Session Day will be organised on November 16. It will gather 20 young people at the beginning of their career, unemployed or considering starting their business to promote them the idea of entrepreneurship, present the benefits of non-formal education and mobility activities for acquiring new competences, introduce the basic financial products, show them examples of good practice.

The guest speakers will come from National Bank of Serbia, social enterprises Dobra Torba and Bagel Bejgl.

The project has been co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.

The participation is free of charge but prior application is necessary to office@ceud.org
