<p>This study has been conducted to find out ways and means to strengthen Vocational Higher Secondary Education (VHSE). Vocationalisation of education is targeted at the enhancement of employment potentials of the VHSE students. This vocational education should help the VHSE schools and students to be more productive and creative. VHSE should prepare the students for competencies in different trades and empower them to enter into various occupations or self-employment. The stakeholders of the VHSE programme should pay more attention to motivate and inspire the VHSE students towards entrepreneurship so that they may keep the spirit of entrepreneurship in becoming entrepreneurs immediately after their VHSE course. The VHSE schools while teaching the students can have production centers and give the students practical experience while they are undergoing VHSE. By doing so the students can be given confidence in a specific trade and the schools conducting the VHSE can become self-supported by producing various products and services related to the VHSE courses the school has opted for. This will help the VHSE students to go out of the schools with confidence that they can become prospective entrepreneurs. For the present study 600 final year VHSE students were selected as the sample size from rural, semi urban and urban schools of Trivandrum District of Kerala State.</p>
