The entrepreneurial activities of ITK students have grown very rapidly in the last 2 years. Many students are starting to enroll in entrepreneurship competitions and grants, either organized by ITK or from external institutions. Seeing this, the Business Technology and Student Affairs Incubator in the field of Entrepreneurship recruited lecturers to become assistants for entrepreneurship students who would later become mentors for entrepreneurial groups at ITK. In order for the quality of mentoring to be good, lecturers who pass the selection of entrepreneurial assistants for ITK students are given the opportunity to take part in training and certification of entrepreneurship companions certified by the Indonesian National Professional Certification Agency (BNSP). The ITK team cooperates with PT. Coach Faried Colleague as a trainer in the certification. Entrepreneurship companion training and certification will be held online from 8-10 April 2022. A total of 7 ITK lecturers participated in this training and certification of entrepreneurship companions.
The training activity which was carried out for 3 days assigned lecturer participants to provide assistance or coaching to existing student groups. From this training program, ITK really provides opportunities for lecturers who have a passion in entrepreneurship to play a role as a good entrepreneurship companion for students and their contribution can improve the quality of entrepreneurship at ITK.
