Abstract

Students’ entrepreneurial skills training from Primary and Preschool Pedagogy specialization is a strategic direction for curriculum development in the process of initial training, justified by the results of substantial research in the field of European curriculum. With reference to this premise, and on some analysis on the correlation between the desirable skills of graduates, necessary to facilitate entrepreneurial learning and curriculum for initial training process, we appreciated the legitimacy and desirability of a research study on the development of entrepreneurship education curriculum in the Primary and Preschool Pedagogy specialization’s students. The article is structured in three dimensions: a) the theoretical foundation with reference to specific entrepreneurial skills training in professionalizing by initial undergraduate studies, and deepen the training by graduating Masters programs in science education; b) the research part, focused on presenting the process and the results of a study analyzing the views and curricular preferences of subjects (students, University didactic staff, primary and preschool teachers); c) assertion of several curriculum development directions, supported theoretically in agreement with the results of research and according to their methodological concepts. Conclusions of the article converge to the idea of focus on curricular re-dimensioning on desirable entrepreneurial competences components and on their relevance for facilitating entrepreneurial learning in preschool and early childhood education.
