YEI To Offer BizCamp From August 12-16
The Youth Entrepreneurship Initiative in coordination with the Bermuda Economic Development Corporation is offering a special BizCamp at BEDC’s headquarters from August 12th to 16th.
Joe Mahoney, executive director of the YEI said, “The goal of this special BizCamp is to prepare students to earn the YEI Entrepreneurship Certificate which will prepare them for the entrepreneurship infusion being offered within each of the new signature learning pathways.”
Nekesha Holdipp, Department of Education Acting Education Officer, and senior Bermuda Signature Schools Transformation Team member stated, “It would be very beneficial for any M3 students who are entering into the Financial & Insurance Services Signature to attend BizCamp and receive the YEI Entrepreneurship Certificate”.
The spokesperson said, “Once again with support of the BEDC, with funding provided by the Centennial Foundation, BizCamp is offered free of charge to any Bermudian teenagers interested in learning how to master the growth mindset of an entrepreneur which is based upon the belief that concepts like intelligence, leadership, personality, and ability are all things that can be developed and cultivated.
“Electronic applications are available at www.yei.bm, or e-mail BizCamp@yei.bm. Participants will be admitted on a rolling basis until both sessions are full.”
