Using public education for any form of job training is one of the gravest mistakes that has put us in the current position.
The reason for public education is to have an informed citizenry able to participate fully in society. Using it as job training is just corporate welfare, that is using tax money to pay for something businesses should do themselves.
There is often overlap in the skills needed in an informed citizenry and employees (e.g. reading, computer skills, etc.), but not always.
Trying to chase what business or the marketplace wants is a fools journey that create citizens poorly prepared to be fully empowered citizens with a solid understanding of the world.
I suspect entrepreneurial skills would be well covered by this approach as it should emphasis skills of leadership, self-reliance, consensus, and creative thinking.
