TRAINING SCHEDULE

PERSONAL ENTREPRENEURIAL COMPETENCY & FINANCIAL LITERACY
There are two major reasons why many people failed in their attempt to do entrepreneurial activities.
First, people who are starting entrepreneurial activities may only have insufficient experiences to address the problems posed by the numerous external business constraints.
Second, they lack sufficient skills to lead the people and make the products and services competitive in the market. Low profit of the business will create consequent problem and many more problems in the future.
Thus, anyone who wants to succeed in a business arena must be equipped with the different Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies or PEC’s, a set of skills that entrepreneurs must possess to take control of the challenges in business. PEC’s are the key abilities of entrepreneurs’ success in business.

STAR PROGRAM TRAINING
1ST BATCH SCHOLAR
A joint undertaking of the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) and Coca-Cola Philippines, the STAR Program aims to economically empower women retailers by providing them access to business and life skills training; access to financing and assets; and access to peer mentoring support.
Women retailers are initially engaged on a 12-week Basic Entrepreneurship and Gender Sensitivity Training before they are introduced to access to resources, where women who successfully graduate from the training are given the chance to apply for microfinancing from STAR Program partners and merchandising support from Coca-Cola Philippines.
