Teachers trained to foster entrepreneurship in students via Kushal Business Challenge

Aiming to spark entrepreneurial thinking among high school students, a two-day district-level training session for the Kushal Business Challenge (KBC) was concluded at the District Institute of Education and Training (DIET), Panchkula on Tuesday.

Teachers from senior secondary schools across the district took part, with two representatives from each institution attending the sessions for the KBC- a government-backed initiative by the Haryana School Education Department. Through a series of engaging, hands-on activities, educators were equipped with practical tools to help students prepare for KBC competitions at the school level and eventually perform at the state level.

The session was held under the chairmanship of Principal Sanjay Kumar Walia and In-Service Field Interaction and Coordination Wing in-charge Rashmi Sharma. Programme coordinators Sunita Sura and Divya Nehra played key roles in organising the event.

Programme coordinators emphasised the initiative’s goal to empower students to think like entrepreneurs by involving them in real-world, project-based business challenges — building both creativity and confidence.
