Lightning bites! (English version)

Arantza Arruti Leave a comment

A few months ago, as part of the UNIC alliance at the University of Deusto, I was invited to give a talk on my experience of entrepreneurial education as part of the so-called lightning bites. You know that it is hard for me to say no, and what’s more, I wanted to do it. What I didn’t know is that I would have to do it from Cork (Ireland), where I am working this month. So last Tuesday, 13 May, at 13:00, there I was, of course, talking about, among other things, teachepreneur. My only problem was the lack of time, I wanted to tell so many nice ‘things’.

In any case, I’ll take this opportunity to share my presentation with you, in case you are interested in having a look at it.

Presentation.

Have a nice weekend!

EntreComp

Today I had several entrepreneurs and innovative projects to tell you about but, finally, I have decided to introduce you to the EntreComp European Entrepreneurship Framework. I am sure that many people know it, but what about those who do not know it or even have never seen it before?

“EntreComp is a comprehensive, flexible and multipurpose reference framework designed to help you understand what is meant by entrepreneurship as a key competence for lifelong learning and to be able to use this in your work. It is intended to support and inspire actions to improve the entrepreneurial capacity of European citizens and organisations and was launched  in 2016 as part of the New Skills Agenda for Europe”. See reference.

EntreComp is represented by a flower, with 15 petals or competences, divided in 3 areas (into action, ideas and opportunities, resources). Each competence is defined through learning outcomes which are mapped across 8 different levels of progression from beginner to expert.Watch the following video and have a clearer idea about the different possibilities that EntreComp offers you.

If you are working around the education sector, I invite you to be part of a wonderful community as https://entrecomp.thinqi.com/

Today I share with you the “conference” I had the pleasure to host at one of the EntreCompEdu Café last February, which is one of the actions that EntreComp Europe carries out. It was at the hands of EntreComp España and organized by the Council of Education, Training, and Employment of the Government of Extremadura. Yes, I know it sounds like a mouthful, but I thought that this introduction was more than necessary.

EntreComp España has a goal: to explore how to meet, develop and identify entrepreneurial competence through youth work, training, employment, and the company. That’s why a group of professionals and organizations want to “inspire and get inspired to implement EntreComp through strategies and activities in their work area and their communities”. By the way, for those of you who are not aware, EntreComp is the European Entrepreneurship Competence Framework. Here you have a video where it’s explained in more detail.

What is EntreComp?

Enjoy the week and the end of the month.

A few weeks ago, I didn’t know I was going to write this post, but here it is. Today I introduce you to an entrepreneurial woman and her team. I met her “virtually” due to entrepreneurship and an investigation I’m doing now. I hope to know more about her team when the time comes, because I’m sure we will have many opportunities.

If you want to know more about the protagonist of this post, just keep reading.
