Engage with stakeholders to support the enterprise and entrepreneurship education
Overview
This standard is about effectively engaging with different groupings of stakeholder, internal and external to the institution, in the development and delivery of enterprise and entrepreneurship education. It requires you to develop appropriate strategies to engage with different groupings of stakeholders, use the outcomes from making sense of your own networks and relationships to engage with stakeholders, identify the needs of various stakeholders related to co-creation of enterprise and entrepreneurship education and review the effectiveness of engagement with different groupings of stakeholders.
For the purposes of this standard, enterprise and entrepreneurship education refers to the process of equipping learners with an enhanced capacity, ideas and skills to make ideas happen, whether it is in the context of starting and running a business or working for someone else. Enterprise refers to a set of personal abilities, skills and behaviours which can be used in a variety of different contexts whilst entrepreneurship refers to an individual or group of individuals creating, developing and managing a new venture. Institution refers to the organisation you work in, whether this is a school, further education college, higher education institution or private training provider.
This standard is recommended for individuals involved in the design, development and delivery of enterprise and entrepreneurship education curricula in schools, colleges, higher education institutions and other education contexts.
