Entrepreneurship Training Session
Working with local churches, businesses, and individual mentors, we teach the basics of starting and running a business in Ghana, from the idea stage to actually opening your doors. Incubator sessions give participants a real space to test their concepts and build out an action plan, not just take notes.
The training itself is secular. Enrolment is open to everyone regardless of religion or belief, and we never ask about belief at intake. Everyone is welcome, whatever their background or belief.
Have a business idea and don't know where to start? Apply now to join a cohort.
