Whether entrepreneurship can be taught is an often asked question The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) – part of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) definitely falls on the ‘taught’ side of the debate.
The organisation has been certifying entrepreneurship trainers in Ethiopia since earlier this year – announcing its first batch of certified trainers earlier this year (in May). This is part of a larger UNCTAD and UNDP programme called Empretec that was started in 1988 and can now be found in more than 30 countries.
