Currently, entrepreneurship is seen by governments as an important instrument for job retention, the development of innovations and economic growth, and resultg in studies that relate education to entrepreneurship with the entrepreneurial intention. However, the results of these studies are inconclusive, especially in different cultural contexts. This chapter aims to understand the effects of entrepreneurial education on the entrepreneurial intentions of these students. This research uses a methodology developed in a distance course in Brazil with some adaptations in the scale. This study was applied in a management course supplied by an e-learning Portuguese University. The results suggest that the construct information was the main influence on the entrepreneurial intention in the future.","PeriodicalId":222139,"journal":{"name":"Global Considerations in Entrepreneurship Education and Training","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117274240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this chapter, the authors propose to analyse the learning perceptions of students who participated in the Poliempreende programme of Portuguese polytechnics. The goal is to see if students feel that their participation was profitable, not only for their personal development, but also for their professional work. Within a perspective of learning in an entrepreneurship, the transformation of entrepreneurs' experiences into knowledge can influence the relationship between their professional experience and the development of their wisdom about entrepreneurship. Thus, it is proposed to implement the evaluation of the impact of the perception of these students through the evaluation model of Kirkpatrick.","PeriodicalId":222139,"journal":{"name":"Global Considerations in Entrepreneurship Education and Training","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125799013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From this situation, arrives the importance of generating and validating measurement instruments to contribute to the identification of level of entrepreneurial intention with which students, of higher education level, have. The Exploratory Factor Analysis technique, uses the Varimax Orthogonal Rotation method, with principal component extraction factors, with a sample of 235 students in public universities of the state of Guanajuato in Mexico, considering 6 dimensions as variables. The results of this research consider as relevant only 3 dimensions from the 6 studied, considering that the entrepreneurial intention in the higher education student is a product of creativity, innovation and need for achievement. While the three dimensions: self-esteem, assumption of risk and problem solving, does not reach a relevant importance; showing a robust instrument for the Mexican context.","PeriodicalId":222139,"journal":{"name":"Global Considerations in Entrepreneurship Education and Training","volume":"140 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122950609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
