Blue Sky Day Photo Gallery

Hi all,
Thanks for attending the Blue Sky Day. Feedback so far has been very good but we want more of it. Please tell us what you thought, what was great, what could have been better, who was your favourite speaker, what did you learn........whatever you have to say, we are listening.

Take a look at some of the photos from the day. Maybe you are in one. By now you are hopefully getting into your programmes at school. The theory is important but remember being a successful entrepreneur is about what you do and not what you think.
Have fun!

Registering on the Website

All students should complete the registration form on the site. If your school is not mentioned on the drop down menu enter it in the next section.
We are asking all students to enter a password (which they can remember), this password will be used later in the year when students submit a business plan for the awards section.

You will know your registration has been successful once you receive a confirmation notice on the site and a follow on email thanking you for registering. If you did not receive the confirmation notice please go through the registration process again.

Looking forward to hearing from you all!

Count Down to Launch

The Team are working hard on concluding the schedule for the Blue Sky Day on Sept 18th. This promises to be an incredible day for all involved. Members of the public are asking if they can also come and listen to the speakers we have lined up.
We are OK with that but the front row seats will be held for tomorrows leaders. We begin the media launch at months end so prepare to hear a lot more about what is happening. As usual, by logging on to the web site you will be the first to know.

Young Entrepreneur Fundamentals

The ABC of Entrepreneurship

A: Abilities and Skillset of the Entrepreneur and Business Team

B: Business Idea Generation, Development and Strategic Plan

C: Cash Flow Requirements and Projections

The ABC Entrepreneurial Skills Framework shows the personal capacity and traits both of the entrepreneur and business team required to start up and run a small business. Teaching materials have also been developed with a focus on application of alternative pedagogies and assessment techniques to help develop entrepreneurial skills to promote business start ups.

The Student Entrepreneurship Programme

This initiative provides student and teaching materials, to foster entrepreneurship within the second and third level educational sectors in Kerry. A model is presented as a framework to contextualise the business start up process and outline the range of support required for curriculum development. This uniqueness of this programme is attributed to the active involvement of key regional entrepreneurs in its design, implementation and evaluation.
