FINANCIAL LITERACY AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP TRAINING FOR STUDENTS OF BAITI JANNATI SUKABUMI ISLAMIC BOARDING SCHOOL

Abstract

Financial literacy and entrepreneurship training for students of the Baiti Jannati Islamic Boarding School, Sukabumi is a community service activity that aims to improve students' understanding and skills in managing finances and entrepreneurship. This activity includes learning about financial management, financial planning, investment, and entrepreneurship, combined with hands-on practice to strengthen participants' ability to start and grow businesses. In the financial literacy training, students are given an understanding of the importance of managing finances wisely, including budget planning, debt management, and the introduction of simple investments. Meanwhile, in entrepreneurship training, participants are trained to recognize business opportunities, design potential business ideas, and understand basic marketing strategies. The implementation methods used are training and workshops on financial literacy, entrepreneurial skills, and soft skill development. The activity was carried out at the Baiti Jannati Islamic Boarding School in Sukabumi involving partners and 75 students. The results of this service show that there is an increase in financial literacy and entrepreneurial skills in students, as well as encouraging the creation of independent financial welfare and positive contributions to the surrounding community. It is hoped that this service activity can provide long-term benefits for Islamic boarding school students, in the form of improving their ability to manage finances, increasing insight into the business world, and readiness to face a more independent and productive future.
