The annual International Entrepreneurship Educators Conference takes place in Edinburgh from the 2nd-4th September 2009. The conference will provide an opportunity for delegates and speakers to share knowledge, experience and good practice in developing enterprising students and graduate entrepreneurs. This year’s Conference theme is ‘Advancing Enterprise Education’ – within that, there are several broad themes: raising awareness, enterprise in context: teaching methods, pollcy in action and pathways for learning.
As part of the conference, on the 3rd September the first Annual Enterprise Educator Awards will be held.
The awards were set up to reward those working as enterprise educators supporting student and graduate entrepreneurship in higher education.
The three categories will recognise:
1) Enterprise Educators who are transforming the enterprise curriculum
2) Enterprise Champions who are supporting extra-curricular activities
3) Student Enterprise Clubs and Societies supporting peer learning
