Being entrepreneurial is no longer just about being an entrepreneur. Entrepreneurial skills, including creativity, sense of initiative, understanding of risk and teamwork are skills much sought after by employers. Entrepreneurship is a key competence in the European Framework and this exercise will introduce EntreComp.
Number of participants: 9 - 18
Duration: About 1h30
Objective: Introducing the different competences within EntreComp and hunting for good practices related to entrepreneurial learning.
Part 1: Card-based game
Each group of three participants has a mixedup EntreComp card set (made by facilitators – each card printed with either competences, descriptors or hints) and is asked to match the cards.
Show them the EntreComp framework to check the card game and show how it works.
Session summary question: What’s your opinion on this framework? Can you apply it to any reality? Why? Why not?
Part 2: Good-practice hunting exercise
Participants interview other participants about best practices in entrepreneurial learning
\1. What do you do with young people to support them to take their future into their own hands?
\2. What does your organisation/ What do you do to support the development of this competence?
\3. What opportunities do young people have in your country/region to develop it?
In small groups (three people) choose the three you can transfer into your practice
Map them against the competence cards – which parts of EntreComp do they support?
Final sum up: final round with speakers from each group sharing examples (15 min)
