Ever dreamt of running your own successful business enterprise? Do you run a business and want to take it to the next level of growth? Are you currently employed but wish to increase your income by starting a business? Whichever of these three categories that you belong to, the Centonomy Entrepreneur program is what you have been looking for!
While it is the dream of many to run a flourishing business, many people do not have fundamentals needed to start, run and grow a business to success. Many do not understand that there is a huge difference between the theory that is currently taught versus the realities of business and being an entrepreneur. This has led to failed attempts at entrepreneurship or stagnation of business in the ‘survival stage’.
It is for this reason that Centonomy is launching its inaugural class for the Centonomy Entrepreneur program. The course will address the very real knowledge gap between the theoretical knowledge of business and what it practically takes to run a successful business enterprise. The Centonomy Entrepreneur participants will go through very interesting, relevant, interactive and practical sessions that will set them off on their entrepreneurial journey.
The course has been developed following the success of the Centonomy101 and Centonomy Campus Edition programs. Many of the Centonomy Alumni have indicated an interest in venturing into entrepreneurship and the Centonomy Entrepreneur aims to provide proper footing in business as they and many others venture into entrepreneurship.
The Centonomy Entrepreneur Program
The course has 10 modules to be covered in 10 weeks. Students will be required to attend one class every Saturday morning for 2.5 hours from 9:00 a.m. to 11.30 a.m. Our mode of facilitation is very interactive and local case studies of entrepreneurs have been used as a foundation for the course. The participants will get practical assignments to implement in the duration of the course as they work towards launching their ventures or taking their current businesses to the next level.

That is wonderful. I deeply feel that I should enroll immediately as I finish the current course. You answered what I have been thinking about i.e now that many people have gone through the course they need another one to build on the skills learnt in Centonomy 101.
My other observation is about Centonomy opening branches countrywide. From the people I have shared with face to face and on Facebook, quite a number would want to attend the course were it not of the distance and its financial implications. You can partner with some willing people or graduates of Centonomy program. What are your plans about it?
Thanks a lot for empowering people with financial skills.

Thank you! We look forward to having you join us for The Centonomy Entrepreneur when you are done with Centonomy 101.
Thank you for sharing your observation, We are working on expanding to other towns to reach many more people who have been requesting for Centonomy.
Does this course take place once a year? I just came across this course and unfortunately you’ve started the classes. If it’s once I’ll have to wait till next year isn’t it the case?
The next Centonomy Entrepreneur class starts on 4th May, and classes will be held once a week every Wednesday evening between 6 and 9 pm at Victoria Plaza, Westlands. We’ll be in touch via email, and you may also reach us via 0700 036 433. If you have any questions, please let us know.
