  4. Overview Enterprise education: the process of equipping students (or graduates) with an enhanced capacity to generate ideas and the skills to make them happen. Entrepreneurship education equips students with the additional knowledge, attributes and capabilities required to apply these abilities in the context of setting up a new venture or business.

  5. Definitions for clarity Enterprise …application of creative ideas and innovations to practical situations… generic concept… applied across all areas of education… combines creativity, ideas development and problem solving with expression, communication and practical action… distinct from the generic use of the word in reference to a project or business venture. Specifically includes social & community enterprise (QAA, 2012)

  6. Definitions and clarity Enterprise education …aims to produce graduates with the mindset and skills to come up with original ideas in response to identified needs and shortfalls, and the ability to act on them. In short, having an idea and making it happen (QAA, 2012)

  7. Definitions and clarity Entrepreneurship defined as the application of enterprise skills specifically to creating and growing organisations in order to identify and build on opportunities. …. aims to produce graduates who are capable of identifying opportunities and developing ventures. (QAA, 2012)

  8. What’s new?
