National framework

Who this site is for

GEDP.org is the public face of the national framework. Registration rules differ by audience β€” choose the channel that matches your role.

School modules

Primary, J.S.S., and S.S.S. β€” only accredited institutions enrol. Pupils and students do not create personal accounts here.

Tertiary institutions

Universities and polytechnics register as institutions for campus entrepreneurship pathways and future cohort tools.

Graduate track (GEDP)

Learn the national graduate programme here. Register, train, fund, and meet mentors as an individual on DreamBiz.

How participation works

Two registration channels, one national mandate. Phase A focuses on institutional enrolment; graduate tools already live on DreamBiz.

  1. Step 01

    Institutions enrol on GEDP.org

    Primary, J.S.S., S.S.S., and tertiary institutions submit institutional registration. No individual student sign-up at school level.

  2. Step 02

    Officers review & approve

    National and regional teams verify institutional details before participation is activated.

  3. Step 03

    Institutions deliver programmes

    Approved schools upload cohorts, run activities from the national catalogue, track skills, and submit term reports.

  4. Step 04

    Graduates join DreamBiz

    Individual tertiary graduates register on DreamBiz for the GEDP entrepreneurship track β€” Meet, Connect, funding, and mentorship.

  5. Step 05

    One national programme

    Both products feed the same national mandate, linked through lightweight federation and graduate provenance.

Programme modules

Every pathway has a dedicated page covering objectives, who joins, benefits, and the enrolment process.
