- This study was conducted among Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Colleges in Kwa-Zulu Natal to engage students in the field of entrepreneurship and to develop the love of entrepreneurship at TVET College. A further investigation was undertaken to understand the way the development and management of entrepreneurship impact organisational productivity and to assess the opinions of lecturers in the development and management of entrepreneurship subjects. In Kwa-Zulu Natal there are insufficient numbers of TVET colleges offering entrepreneurship. A quantitative research method was used in this study. A total of 450 questionnaires were distributed and 371 were returned by the respondents. Stratified random sampling was used in the study to select participants. A pilot study was conducted in One (1) TVET college in the Empangeni District. The findings of the study show that there is a need to develop and manage entrepreneurship in TVET colleges and also reflect on the system that was used earlier affecting students, lecturers and other stakeholders. The study reveals that the old system was not very successful, because stakeholders were not involved; students were not afforded the opportunity to select the courses they preferred; and the shortage of qualified lecturers to teach entrepreneurship, also posed a problem. It was found that resources were not sufficient for the development and management of entrepreneurship at TVET colleges. Bursaries must be offered to students in order to motivate them to take entrepreneurship. The study revealed that entrepreneurship must be mandatory to all TVET college students.
