Business Works partners with CEFE International to establish and develop the CEFE Caribbean Movement, a brand that has been proudly built since 2009. The CEFE (Competency-based Economies Formation of Enterprise) methodology is a cornerstone of this initiative, focusing on effective business training and entrepreneurship development. This methodology was developed by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), known as the German Development Cooperation, and has its roots in Germany. Initially created in the early 1980s by the German organization InWEnt, now part of GIZ, CEFE was designed to address the pressing need for impactful entrepreneurship development and business training across the globe. The approach emphasizes experiential learning, competency-based education, and participatory training.
1. Competency-Based Learning: The CEFE Caribbean Institute focuses on developing specific competencies and skills that are vital for entrepreneurship development and business management. These competencies include financial literacy, marketing, business planning, and problem-solving.
2. Experiential Learning: CEFE emphasizes learning by doing within its business training programs. Participants engage in hands-on activities, simulations, and real-world business challenges to develop practical skills and knowledge.
3. Participatory Training: Trainers at the CEFE Caribbean Institute utilize a participatory approach, involving participants in the learning process. This method encourages active engagement and peer learning.
4. Customization: CEFE programs can be tailored to meet the specific needs and contexts of different regions and target groups. This adaptability has significantly contributed to its success in various countries.
