Hamilton, Bermuda 7 June 2022 – Don’t miss your chance to sign up for ‘an educational opportunity not to be missed!’ Think Like an entrepreneur, an in-depth course with the aim of teaching entrepreneurs how to establish goals and manage risks, is set to begin on Tuesday, June 21st, 2022. Driven by the internationally recognized, award winning Ice House Entrepreneurship Program, the Think Like an Entrepreneur course will provide a challenging learning experience for all budding entrepreneurs.
The course is designed to reveal new opportunities, ignite one’s ambition and foster the skills that will empower individuals to reach new heights as an entrepreneur. The curriculum for the course draws on eight fundamental concepts that can empower anyone to success. Hailed by one past student as “an educational opportunity not to be missed”, BEDC is looking forward to welcoming the next group of participants.
Think Like an Entrepreneur will be facilitated by Dennis Carter, one of BEDC’s Junior Micro, Small & Medium Enterprise (MSME) Officers and Ray Lambert, Director of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprise. The course teaches an innovative, international program, which was introduced to Bermuda in 2015. Mr. Carter travelled abroad to receive training and to further develop the course for Bermuda.
Mr. Carter states: “We are excited to guide another group of aspiring entrepreneurs through the Ice House program curriculum and look forward to hosting them in person with the hope to increase collaboration and innovation within the participants. We know from previous cohorts that there are dozens of creative and unique business ideas floating around in people’s heads, and what this course does is help participants develop the mindset, skills and confidence to start working towards creating a tangible business whilst in an engaging and collaborative environment.”
Participants will learn how to develop an entrepreneurial mindset, identify and evaluate entrepreneurial opportunities, establish goals, manage risks, and build a successful brand. The eight-week scheme will aid in developing cross-discipline entrepreneurial attitudes, behaviors and skills. According to a past student “Think Like an Entrepreneur opened my eyes to the potential and possibilities of one’s ideas. The course showed me that a dream, a passion, can be actualized. Keep your vision set on the destination and trust the process along the journey.”
