Program Keusahawanan Taylor’s-CIMB Islamic 2017 Kicks Off!
Taylor’s, a renowned education group has not only been helping students achieve their educational dreams, but also giving back to the community. Recently, Taylor’s Education Group partnered with CIMB Islamic Bank Berhad in helping the residents of PPR Sri Pantai through Projek Keusahawanan (Entrepreneurship Programme). This project aims to help the Sri Pantai residents towards a successful and sustainable business expansion. The biggest attraction of the programme is the RM 50,000 business grant offered by CIMB Islamic that will be awarded to the top business proposals submitted by the applicants.
Projek Keusahawanan includes three phases – motivational, education and implementation phase. The motivational phase aims to lift the residents’ spirits and persuade them to participate for a chance of receiving the grant. From there, applicants will be screened and those successful will move on the second phase, which is the educational phase. In that phase, applicants will have to go through a 5-week course in Taylor’s University Lakeside Campus to learn more about ways to expand their business. At the end of this phase, applicants will have to use what they have learned to propose a plan for their own businesses and a winner will be chosen. The winner will then move on to the implementation phase.
