8. Entrepreneurship Education: Make Entrepreneurship a core subject in business
schools and explore possibilities of setting up specialised entrepreneurship
schools at the under-graduate and post-graduate levels.
9. Vocational Educational Training (VET)/Skill Development (See NKC Report
to the Nation 2006): Modernize VET by formalizing:
- Performance based training and assessment
- Innovative delivery models
- Incentives to states
- Skills in spoken and written English as a priority
- A transparent industry based certification system
- A transparent rating system for VET institutions
10. Promoting Entrepreneurial Culture:- Reward and recognize successful entrepreneurs ranging from the local to

The Report on Entrepreneurship has concluded that the aforesaid
