An Entrepreneurship Education Model for Trinidad and Tobago

Abstract

This paper proposes an Entrepreneurship Education Model for the developing country of Trinidad and Tobago. While it is understood that entrepreneurship education is critical in creating successful entrepreneurs, it is equally important that a systematic structure be designed to ensure effective utilization of Government resources to produce successful outcomes. This paper examines the current entrepreneurship strategic framework of Trinidad and Tobago and recent research in entrepreneurship education programmes and proposes a model that is based on programme objectives, curriculum development and programme evaluation. This study is significant because it is focused on an area that has a low level of research attention within the Caribbean developing country context and will therefore generate new knowledge and increase entrepreneurial capacity and the rate of human development. It provides a distinct opportunity to assesses the efforts to promote the development of entrepreneurs utilizing the mechanism of entrepreneurship education in Trinidad and Tobago and proposes a model built on the Best Practices and the First World experiences and research in entrepreneurship education.
