EDUCATOR PROGRAMS
Train the Trainer (TTT): Professional Entrepreneurship Certified Programme
Educating the educators. Open to educators who want to teach entrepreneurship the way it's actually lived.
Why we need to rethink this
The gap between how entrepreneurship is taught and how startups work
Most programmes teach…
- → Textbook definitions of entrepreneurship
- → Theory first, case study later
- → Brick and mortar business only
- → Linear business plan as the goal
- → Assessment via exams
The real world demands…
- → Hands-on problem finding and solving
- → Doing first, reflecting second
- → Tech, social and scalable ventures
- → Experiments, pivots and traction
- → Demonstration via real output
TTT bridges this gap, giving educators the tools, mindset and methods to teach entrepreneurship the way it's actually lived.
Our philosophy
Five principles behind the programme
01 Learn by Doing
Educators build a real or simulated venture during the programme. Theory is taught in the context of action.
02 From Brick & Mortar to Deep Tech
The full spectrum: lifestyle businesses, scalable tech ventures, social enterprises and corporate innovation.
03 Asia Relevant, Globally Benchmarked
Case studies rooted in Malaysian and Southeast Asian context, with methods drawn from MIT and leading Asian accelerators.
04 Pedagogy as a First Class Subject
Educators don't just learn entrepreneurship, they learn how to teach it: facilitation, assessment design and curriculum integration.
05 Community over Course
The cohort stays connected after the programme, a living network of practitioner educators.
