Building an Entrepreneurial Portfolio (20 cr)

Objectives (course unit)

Entrepreneurial Portfolio is way to bring your practical experience about entrepreneurship and working skills to be part of your curriculum. Relevant examples of such a practical experience are for example developing a business idea or existing business, volunteering to work in an entrepreneurial association or training program related to entrepreneurship or working life skills (e.g. accelerator etc.)

The plan is reviewed with the coach before starting the assignment. The way how you will document the outcomes is also agreed with the coach.
