Youth Entrepreneurship
CEDEC works with adult learning centres, Cégeps, universities, organizations, service providers and entrepreneurs in communities across Quebec to help young adults between the ages of 18-39 achieve their business dreams. CEDEC’s Youth Start-Up workshops enable youth to take their business ideas from intention to action.
CEDEC Youth Start-Up
CEDEC’s Youth Start-Up Workshops are hands-on, engaging youth in discovering their entrepreneurial qualities and developing soft skills, such as problem solving, planning, leadership and communication. Participants explore their business ideas and learn how to access tools and support to develop their project or business.
Using a step-by-step approach to clearly define the concept of entrepreneurship, we lead youth through exercises that help them recognize their skills and apply them to their business projects. Workshop participants also learn from successful entrepreneurs from a variety of fields.
