The Management College of Southern Africa (MANCOSA) invites grades 10 and 11 high school learners in KwaZulu-Natal schools studying the Business Studies subject to participate in the MANCOSA Schools’ Business Proposal Competition and Exhibition.
Learners have until Friday, 30 September 2014 to enter the MANCOSA Schools’ Business Proposal Competition and Exhibition. Participating leaners must produce a detailed business proposal in English which encapsulates their business idea; explain why their idea would work; reveal what steps they will take to execute their business plan to make it a reality and how they will achieve and sustain a successful business.
The competition is a community outreach initiative by MANCOSA aimed at encouraging the inception of innovative business ideas among learners and fostering entrepreneurship. Finalists are compelled to attend an exhibition on Wednesday, 8 October 2014 where they have to present their business proposal before a panel of judges who needs to be convinced that the entrant’s business idea is a winner, hence promoting a competitive spirit among fellow learners.
Prizes up for grabs include a MANCOSA Bursary and tablet for the winning entrant, and the school attended by the winner will benefit from a one-day leadership skills training programme for a select number of senior staff members. Terms and conditions apply to prizes allocated to the winners.
