Project Description

Entrepreneurship plays a pivotal role in a country's economic development, with VET students representing crucial potential entrepreneurs due to their proximity to entering the workforce. As educators, we aim to prepare students for successful careers through various efforts. Surveys conducted among senior students revealed a notable difference in confidence levels between those who disclosed their identities and those who remained anonymous. This prompted us to explore how education can better equip students for entrepreneurship and self-employment. Inspired by these findings, we initiated a transnational project, Entre'VET'ducation, to enhance entrepreneurship education in VET schools. Our goal is to cultivate entrepreneurial skills and mindsets among students, fostering independence and readiness for business life.

Objectives
