Therefore, an academic program in agriculture at the certificate level, specifically for PT3 dropouts needs to be developed into a good academic product that is ready to be commercialized. Basic knowledge in the field of cultivation, livestock, and fisheries should be emphasized in this program. Students will be exposed to the concept of entrepreneurship throughout the training, whether theoretically in the classroom or practically in the field, which will be beneficial for them. Hence, they will be able to meet the high demand for employment and be able to create commercialization opportunities in agriculture. It is envisaged that through this academic program, human capital that are produced will be able to develop their own careers using agricultural expertise acquired through entrepreneurial operations, as well as give employment chances for others. 2021 Conference or Workshop Item PeerReviewed text en https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/56393/1/56393.pdf ID56393 Muhammad, Marinah and Jemali, Noor Janatun Naim and Nik Yusoff, Nik Raihan and Mohd Ghazi, Rozidaini (2021) Agricultural career training program for drop out students through work based learning / Marinah Muhammad ...
