KINGSTON, Jamaica – Wayne Chen, president of the Jamaica Employers' Federation (JEF), has welcomed the Caribbean Examinations Council's (CXC) plans to introduce subjects related to entrepreneurship as part of efforts to boost the economies of the region. Speaking with The Gleaner yesterday, Chen said it was an initiative for which he had been lobbying for some time. “In fact, just recently, I made a global call for entrepreneurship skills to be taught at the primary and secondary level throughout the world as we believe it will unlock entrepreneurship talent, but, most importantly, it will give young people an appreciation of how wealth is created in a market economy,” Chen said.
