Telerik Kendo UI MVC - Using Wizard - how to validate a partial view form before the next step

Question

I have a simple Wizard control which loads partial views. All I want to do is validate the partial view before going on to the next step. When I tried jquery validate I got an error validate is Undefined. I am not able to find much help as I want to use the data annotations for the validation. Any help is apprecited.

Business.cshtml

@using Kendo.Mvc.UI
@model Reverberate.BLL.Model.Form.Application.BusinessOnboardingModel

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Business Onboarding";
    Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}

<style>
    .wide {
        width: 95%;
    }

    .field-validation-error {
        color: red;
    }
</style>



    <!-- Wizard -->
