*About the PIETE project: in PIETE, we believe entrepreneurship education should be encouraged at the earlier stage of formal education. Yet, schools demonstrate a rather low participation rate in practical entrepreneurial learning and are the most underdeveloped element in the entrepreneurship ecosystem as a whole. One reason behind a current state of affairs is the lack of entrepreneurship education in the pre-service teacher training, or initial teacher education programmes, taught at universities. PIETE project is set to make a substantial contribution in addressing the deficiencies in the development of entrepreneurial competences for a new generation of pre-service teachers. Learn more about the project at www.entrepreneurialteachers.eu.
