EICAA at the 3E Conference

The Entrepreneurial and Intrapreneurial Competences Assessment Alliance (EICAA) participated in the 3E – ECSB Entrepreneurship Education Conference from 10 to 12 May 2023 in Aarhus, Denmark. Led by our project coordinator Florian Bratzke from Univations and EICAA core staff member Ester Bernadó from TecnoCampus, this workshop brought together a community of entrepreneurship educators and researchers. It fostered exchange, inspiration and valuable feedback. With this approach, EICAA aims to shape the future of entrepreneurship education with a focus on entrepreneurship skills.

Florian and Ester presented the core idea and achievements of the EICAA project to the workshop participants. More than 20 educators and researchers had the opportunity to immerse themselves in the EICAA Competence Framework, which offers a fresh perspective on entrepreneurial skills. Prior to the session, participants took part in a self-assessment to evaluate their entrepreneurial competences using the EICAA Competence Monitor. This was followed by an interesting discussion and group activities during which participants worked together to develop entrepreneurial actions that focused on specific competences identified through the assessment. The results of these collaborative efforts were then presented and discussed in detail, which fostered engagement and shared learning among participants. Overall, the participants gave very positive feedback to the work done in EICAA. This is particularly relevant as the 3E conference gathers the leading experts from the field of entrepreneurship education each year.
