DepEd, through its Bureau of Curriculum Development , spearheaded a consultative meeting with education partners and stakeholders on the implementation of Republic Act No. 10679, otherwise known as the “Youth Entrepreneurship Act.”
DepEd BCD Director Jocelyn Andaya welcomed the participants and thanked them for heeding DepEd’s request for them to become part of the creation of an entrepreneurship program for K to 12 learners. She also underscored that the promotion of entrepreneurship as a viable option after Senior High School has never fully taken off, which DepEd wants to change through this undertaking.
In line with this, Andaya shared the DepEd intention to create an “ecosystem that encourages entrepreneurship” which – in turn –helps in building a progressive economy and culture. “We dream that one day, the K to 12 graduates will have the entrepreneurial mindset and boldness to put up their own businesses and where government helps them achieve their goals,” she explained.
DepEd Officer-In-Charge Assistant Secretary for Curriculum and Instruction, Director Alma Ruby Torio also thanked the education stakeholders for “forging partnerships” and helping DepEd in its goal to equip the SHS learners with the 21st century skills that will enable them to meet the demands of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. “Let us all collaborate, coordinate, and work together for this is an avenue for us to be of good service to our learners,” she added.
