PREPARING YOUNG PEOPLE FOR THE FUTURE OF WORK Entrepreneurs are a vital part of South Africa's economic and social survival, but entrepreneurial skills development is poorly supported by the current schooling system. Using a project-based learning approach , the WESSA Head, Heart, Hands (Triple H) Programme implements a model for practical high school entrepreneurship education . We support high school learners to start and run their own businesses , from conceptualisation to the market and back to the drawing board to make improvements. Through this practical experience, teenagers gain and enhance critical soft and technical skills that they need to competitively pursue entrepreneurship or enter the workplace once they leave school.
