Educational

entrepreneurship e-course

An online entrepreneurship course has been developed to engage young people and ensure a lasting project impact.

Throughout the course, ten videos with female entrepreneurs as role models were shown to inspire girls to delve into

entrepreneurship and technology fields. In order to achieve a greater scale the course is included as an introduction to

entrepreneurship education and acts as a preview to the Junior Achievement company program named AcceleratorX. It also

is an inspiration and motivation to engage in entrepreneurial activities. Within the course, students follow Lina, a female

character on a journey, to find out what entrepreneurship is and learn about the qualities of an entrepreneur through

examples and stories of successful local and international entrepreneurs. Furthermore, they learn about various roles within a

business (Marketing, Sales, Finance, Production) as well as the position of the CEO. At the end of the course, students are

encouraged to continue their entrepreneurial journey and create Junior Companies at school.
