Subject Aim:
This subject is for the entrepreneur to be able to run the business they have started.

This will mostly focus on project management, inventory management and human resource management for an effectively led business.
In this subject, participants can learn about some of the issues and concerns that will be introduced as their businesses grow. The purpose of this subject is to show how entrepreneurs make their visions a reality by evaluating opportunities to expand. Expansion ideas to be discussed will include franchising, mass production and international expansion.
