Enterpreneurship course

I'm thinking of sending my teenager to this entrepreneur course I heard of. Apparently they teach business skills, finance & management skills, the kids get to meet industry professionals and embark on actual community or enterprise projects. Interestingly, they also instill confidence, speech and poise through drama and dance. The kids do get to put up performances and so on.

Some of their course seniors have already set up their own social enterprise, and some of them are only 15 yrs! I think it's a great way to teach my kid monetary responsibility and discover her business potential.

With the influx of foreigners and expat families and them getting PRs in Singapore, I think that our youths will really lose out with our highly academic but stifled education.

What do you guys think, would you send your child for such a course? (i think it's only $80 a month)

How long do they need to be in this course to complete the program?

Many sec schools now get external vendors to conduct such courses at very affordable fees plus they get to use their edusave to pay.

From what I heard it is up to 21 years old. But it's not like they can ONLY graduate at 21... you can drop out anytime (of cos it's your choice), and they want to offer this course for as long as your "youth" lasts. And it doesn't end after 21 either. I think they will most likely employ you, or by that time you would be

a) running your own enterprise
b) studying in a prestigious arts school
c) studying in some other college
