This course’s educational objective is to develop the entrepreneurial skills of all students, whether they are in art or zoology, and whether they are social or business entrepreneurs. This course teaches innovative entrepreneurship, which Drs. James and JoAnn Carland regard as the essential character of entrepreneurs. The course relies on your own individual and collective ideas, backgrounds, and curiosity. No previous knowledge or expertise is necessary. Throughout the course we will engage each other in a learning enterprise, similar to the collaborative entrepreneurship process of idea generation, knowledge development, structuring strategic outcomes, and assessing course competency performance. The privilege of learning at Anaheim University – A Sustainable University, avails the opportunity to explore eco-sustainability enterprise ideas for entrepreneurship. Likewise, the global scope and multicultural spectrum of the Carland Entrepreneurship Institute embraces social enterprise models of community empowerment to enhance entrepreneurship learning. So, bring an open mind and creative spirit to our entrepreneurship learning adventure!
