The purpose of this study was to perform a high level benchmarking of learning outcomes achieved at Proacademy against The Entrepreneurship Competence Framework (EntreComp).

Data was collected through semi-structured interviews with six final year bachelor students and two Proacademy coaches. Interviews focused on entrepreneurial competences, as articulated by EntreComp and discussed their application in Proacademy education.

It was found that competences included in EntreComp closely match the ones embedded in Proacademy program, thus demonstrating the holistic and multi-faceted nature of both Proacademy program and EntreComp. Findings also indicate that, while the theme of both EntreComp and Proacademy is entrepreneurship, competences analysed are attributes of success in what is expected to be the future of working life and therefore aspirational in any area of education.

More work will need to be done to perform a comprehensive mapping against EntreComp and study individual and team competencies of Proacademy learners in greater details.
