Abstract

Lack of knowledge and training in entrepreneurship, causing the current young generation to not maximize the potential of their entrepreneurial spirit. The development of entrepreneurial skills is an alternative for teenagers to escape unemployment, especially for those who cannot continue

This program is a community service activity carried out in increasing the entrepreneurial interest of students of SMK Pencawan Medan, providing training, and making independent and productive sustainable activities.

This program runs from 16 October 2019 with entrepreneurship materials, Thai Tea beverage making training and entrepreneurial skills including Success Story, and business management training. After the target has the skills in developing a business, the provision of details of capital is carried out as a step towards realizing the goal of practicing the entrepreneurial spirit they have learned.

The program's success criteria are generated from questions and answers that have been given randomly to the target, namely increasing the level of target knowledge about the meaning of entrepreneurship, increasing target commitment in implementing entrepreneurial programs and increasing the level of entrepreneurial desire from the target. In this program the targets are not only equipped with entrepreneurial skills but they are practiced directly.

One strategy in reducing the unemployment rate for SMA / SMK graduates is entrepreneurship training. The aims and objectives of this training are so that young people have entrepreneurial and business competences, train to be entrepreneurs, motivate students to improve their achievements, and develop human resources who are able to create job opportunities for themselves and others.
