Entrepreneurial Mindset
Certification Training

Develop your entrepreneurial mindset to better recognize opportunity, create value, and foster innovation in your classroom or organization.

The world has changed in ways that now requires everyone to think and act like an entrepreneur. An entrepreneurial mindset shifts our perspective in a way that exposes opportunities, ignites ambition, and fosters innovation. And, in today's rapidly changing world, an entrepreneurial mindset is essential for both individuals and organizations to adapt and thrive.

In this online training, you will learn about the research behind the entrepreneurial mindset as well as the best tools to facilitate and encourage entrepreneurial behavior in the classroom, organization, and community. In addition to live weekly Zoom sessions, the training will use an engaging mix of recorded presentations, small group and individual activities, discussions, and experiential, problem-based learning taking you through an Opportunity Discovery Process to solve real time issues with your peers.

Upon successful completion of the certification training, participants will receive an Entrepreneurial Mindset Facilitator Certificate qualifying them to facilitate any of ELI's Ice House Entrepreneurship Programs.

The Entrepreneurial Mindset Certification training was invaluable and opened my eyes to a much broader definition and application of entrepreneurship, one I can act on in my daily work at Concordia College and in my community involvement. The training helped me to improve skills such as listening, adapting, and taking smart risks to move more quickly when solving a challenge or exploring an opportunity. Learning the Discovery Process allowed me to continue to apply knowledge gained in the training. Prior to this incredibly rich professional development experience, my view of entrepreneurship tended to focus more on entrepreneurs in business. I now see the relevance and benefit of an entrepreneurial mindset in many fields, especially education!
