Abstract


The progress of a country and its economic sustainability is entirely reliant on the level of education that its people have access to. The extensive prevalence of poverty has become widespread and concerning for everyone.

Investing in business education has far-reaching implications for a country's economic security. In the realm of academia and professional development, the pursuit of business education revolves around acquiring knowledge, honing skills, and mastering management capabilities. Business education plays a crucial role in driving sustainable economic growth in Nigeria. Recognizing the significance of business education has become imperative. The purpose of this paper therefore is to explore the interplay between business education, economic stability, and the valuable outcomes that can be obtained through their synergy. Business education plays a crucial role in ensuring economic security. Additionally, there are various strategies available to improve its effectiveness. During the event, the discussions revolved around the importance of business education in ensuring sustainable economic security in Nigeria. The paper put forward suggestions to address this issue. Educational programs at all educational levels must equip young individuals with essential business knowledge and skills.
