ABSTRACT:
The primary objective of this research was to identify the entrepreneurial abilities required by business education students for self-sustainability in Osun State. The research used a descriptive survey approach. Osun State College of Education in Ila-Orangun conducted the research. The study’s population consisted of four hundred and fifty (450) students enrolled in the Department of Vocational and Technology Education, specializing in business education. The research randomly selected a total sample size of 180 business education students from Osun State College of Education, Ila-Orangun. The study’s results indicated that entrepreneurial abilities are essential for efficient company operations. The absence of these abilities hinders graduates from starting any entrepreneurial endeavor. The entrepreneurial skills will empower students to manage various papers for their clients, ensuring customer satisfaction effectively. The abilities may function as operational directives for existing personnel and as a training resource for newcomers. The study determined that business school students must strive to acquire all essential abilities for fulfilling and sustaining client requirements.
