The USAID Young Development Achievement (YDA) project, together with the School of Entrepreneurs of the Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of Turkmenistan, are launching a new program aimed at supporting young people who want to develop their businesses.

Program participants will have the opportunity to take an intensive course for free that will help them master the necessary skills to start and develop their own business. The training will include practical classes on developing business ideas, business planning, marketing, and other important aspects of entrepreneurship. In addition, young entrepreneurs will be able to receive advice from experienced businessmen and experts.

The training will result in a business project competition, where participants will present their ideas developed during the program. Competition leaders will be able to count on support in the form of mentoring, possible investment and other resources for the implementation of their projects.

The program will cover Ashgabat and all velayats, providing access to training at the branches of the "School of Entrepreneurs". Implementation is planned for the period from February to April 2025.

Young people aged 18 to 28 interested in developing entrepreneurial activity are invited to participate. Participants will be selected on a competitive basis. Participation in the program is free.
