Project “Coneeect” – Educating<br />
Entrepreneurship Educators<br />
Coneeect is an international network of universities<br />
whose members have a shared goal of establishing and<br />
improving the teaching of entrepreneurship in Europe.<br />
Coneeect thus offers an interactive training programme<br />
for academic entrepreneurship teachers throughout<br />
Europe. The programme is officially supported and<br />
funded by the European Union. MUAS and the SCE<br />
are the lead organisations charged with developing<br />
and running the programme over a three-year period.<br />
Participants benefit from easy access to the European<br />
entrepreneurship community. Ideas are exchanged and<br />
the network is establishment in open forums which are<br />
tied in closely with the global entrepreneurship scene.<br />
Best practice-based entrepreneurship teaching skills<br />
are taught in interdisciplinary teams of prominent<br />
international experts and trainers. The programme thus<br />
provides a unique opportunity to develop and design<br />
new teaching methods, materials and assessment and<br />
performance measurement techniques in the interest of<br />
maximising educational effectiveness.<br />

These one-week training courses are aimed at instructors<br />
in any field at colleges and universities who are either<br />
already teaching entrepreneurship or will be in the<br />
following academic year. Attendees are encouraged<br />
to pass on the insights and information they receive to<br />
others, such as concerning new teaching formats and<br />
methods. New partners are welcome as well who are<br />
interested in contributing to the programme by designing<br />
training courses of their own or attending a symposium.<br />
We believe entrepreneurship education needs further<br />
development. Our world is changing at an ever-faster<br />
pace, as new work models and professions are emerging,<br />
networks becoming increasingly important and<br />
today‘s reality becoming rapidly more complex. Our<br />
task is to prepare young people for these challenges<br />
and exploit advancements achieved in the process.<br />
We teach the entrepreneurship and leadership skills<br />
required to effectively shape the future.<br />
