Abstract
While there is broad consensus about the role of entrepreneurial skills for job creation, there is a dearth of research about the type of entrepreneurial opportunities that are available for young graduates that studied education-related courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Although individuals with teaching qualifications like Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.)and Post-Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) are considered first for teaching positions, opportunities also abound for such individuals with a passion for entrepreneurship within the sector. This article presents different entrepreneurship opportunities which young people with education degrees can explore to become self-reliantand employers of labour. It is expected that the article will serve as a road map for young people desiring to become successful entrepreneurs, job creators and active contributors to sustainable development and prosperity of Sub-Saharan Africa.
