Effect of Entrepreneurship Education on Entrepreneurial Intention
Abstract
As a result of global economic problems and technological innovations, education is no longer a guarantee for employment. Consequently, most governments have introduced entrepreneurship education in institutions of higher learning with the aim of creating entrepreneurial intention among students. The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial intention of students in Technical and Vocational Education and Training institutions in Kenya. The findings suggest a significant but low correlation between entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intention. Given the importance of entrepreneurship education it is desirable to realign the entrepreneurship education curriculum to reflect a competence based outfit that incorporates practical approaches to imparting entrepreneurial knowledge and skills.
Key words: Entrepreneurship education; Entrepreneurial intention, competence based
