Chapter 3: Steps to carry out a business project at school
Introduction
The entrepreneurial project is based on the idea of a production, a productive action that creates a good, a service, an event.

Students will generate an action that creates a good, a service, an event, which they will make known to a target audience. An action that has a value, because it meets a need in the environment.

An entrepreneurial project is carried out in several phases. It must be prepared, piloted made to progress. Four steps are usually distinguished:
  • Project trigger
  • Project elaboration
  • Project implementation
  • Project evaluation
  • Acquiring Professional and Other related Skills
The impact of an entrepreneurial project on students is important. Beyond the development of entrepreneurial attitudes explored at large in the previous chapter, the students will develop professional skills that will foster their employability.

The e-learning guide is very useful. Module 4, Innovative Entrepreneurial Experiences at Schools, provides easy examples for teachers.
The negative side is is that there is a lot of information in English, and sometimes it is difficult to follow it if you have an intermediate level of English. Moreover, as a suggestion, I think it could be a good idea to have it in a download version to print the most interesting parts.

This module is a little bit complex and theoretical. Good practices at the end are relevant.

This module highlights a very important aspect of education: entrepreneurship education in schools, vocational schools and universities, which will definitely have a positive impact on entrepreneurial dynamism in our economies, on young people’s employability.
To this end it not only raises teachers and counsellors’ awareness about the benefits of enterprise projects but also provides them with invaluable tips on how to implement such enterprise projects at their own school. Teachers and counsellors will find practical advice on the necessary steps in creating an enterprise project at school, how an enterprise works or how to search for funds such as crowdfunding. The module also proposes teachers, educators or guidance counsellors a series of best practices to get inspired from.
