Computer Based
Learning Through the Ba’alty (My Shop) computer game working children learn basis business principles and business ethics. This interactive simulation allows children to learn about entrepreneurship by setting up and running a small shop. Through managing stock, recruiting staff and making financial decisions, children learn about how to get ahead in business – ethically!
Learning Through Work
Working children acquire technical, business and life skills through their work. The learning through work program tries to improve this process by engaging with business owners to improve the learning environment within the workplace and in providing supplementary training programs along side of work to fill in learning gaps for working children.
