\u201cBy revitalizing production units, we are providing a platform for the learners to gain hands on experience on entrepreneurial activities,\u201d he said<\/p>\n

\u201cZambia\u2019s economic development and job creation heavily depends on the growth of small and medium enterprises SMEs,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

And Northern Province Dean of Head Teachers Remmy Senkelo who spoke on behalf of the teachers pledged to ensure that production units are viable.<\/p>\n

Mr Senkelo said the re-launched production units have come with guidelines which all schools will strive to follow.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs school managers we will try to ensure that the guidelines are adhered to,\u201d Mr Senkelo said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Principal Education Standards Officer Lina Kamanga said the information sharing seminar on production units could not have come at a better time than this.<\/p>\n

Ms Kamanga said the District Education Board Secretary\u2019s Offices and teachers have leant a number of things among them finding markets to sell their produce from production units.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe presentations that were made in the morning have given each and every one of your ideas where to sell your products,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
