The actual mission of YEA! is spreading the start-up vision all over Albania, providing vocational trainings and fascilitating a network of stakeholders and entrepreneurship ambassadors as positive role-models in cooperation with the national and regional educational institutions and schools.

YouthStart encourages young people through entrepreneurship education. Each young person develops a business plan of their liking and presents it on the “competition day”. Throughout this process, each young person acquires business knowledge and skills “hands-on” in an enjoyable, lively way. In the end, it’s about their dream (dream business to be specific), which they can turn into reality during the course. We also focus on developing their personal skills based on self-understanding and self-respect.

Foróige NFTE is committed to changing the lives of young people in disadvantaged communities by enabling them to develop core skills in business and enterprise, and in doing so help them to unlock their individual talents and potential. Foróige NFTE operates in-school and out-of-school programmes, both of which have been shown to be successful in increasing school completion and college attendance rates.  Involvement in the NFTE programme has been shown to improve the business, academic and life skills of young people.
