The announcement of the launch by the University of Guyana of its School of Business, Entrepreneurship and Business Innovation (SEBI) from next semester has attracted high praise from two local chief executive officers (CEOs), both of whom say that the initiative points to a long overdue move to help respond to the challenge of skills shortages facing the private sector.
Last week, UG Vice Chancellor Professor Ivelaw Griffith told the Stabroek Business that the imminent launch of SEBI represents a move to provide both structured academic courses and specialized skill-upgrading programmes tailored to respond to the needs of entities in both the public and private sectors.
