The Consortium for Entrepreneurship Education

The Consortium for Entrepreneurship Education

The members of the Entrepreneurship Consortium are champions for ENTREPRENEURSHIP EDUCATION at all levels of education and across all disciplines in America and the world.

The Consortium was created by the International Enterprise Academy at the Ohio State University in 1982 and has become a private, non-profit corporation since 1998. Annual membership is offered to state departments of education in the United States or nations outside the United States as the primary membership group and governing body of the organization. Other organizations may choose to become a corporate member as well. This corporate membership varies by year based on consortium priorities and educational budget constraints. The work of the Consortium saves members duplication of effort and provides resources for teachers in their states. To become one of our leadership organizations please send the Corporate Membership Form to us.

Memberships as a Partner or Sponsor Is Open to All

Membership as a Partner or Sponsor is available to any other entrepreneurship organization as advocates or entrepreneurship educators, and brings the same benefits of sharing input and output in meeting the needs of members in support of all types of entrepreneurship development. This includes local schools or school districts, universities or community colleges, business organizations, and non-profit organizations interested in developing entrepreneurship education.

Teachers/Instructors have a special membership category NEW this year!

Individual teachers have often requested a special rate for a personal membership, and now it is available. Benefits will be appropriate for this level of membership, providing instructors an opportunity to stay tuned to the field, promote their programs and ideas, and receive a discount on registration costs for the Annual FORUM. See the attached Ambassador membership form for specific details.

Benefits to member organizations

• Members will be actively supporting National Entrepreneurship Week as part of the Lifelong Learning Team. The first annual event February, 2007, was very successful. Join us to be part of the Leadership team.
• All types of members participate in the annual conference, The Annual Entrepreneurship Education Forum, held each year in different locations in the United States. This is a chance to meet other educators and learn about their strategies for delivering programs and meeting the challenges of the educational systems.
• Each year we offer members multiple copies of our newsletter to share with others, and various types of materials that they can share in their region. The members decide each year what types of materials are needed.
• The purpose of the consortium's Web page is to provide information and resources "for teachers, instructors, program developers, and others who help students of all ages find their own entrepreneurial opportunities." Choices include articles about entrepreneurship education, links to other organizations, conference and workshop information, resource materials, model programs, learning activities, transparency masters, case studies, curriculum, and information about the consortium.

We welcome new members interested in sharing ideas and supporting entrepreneurship education throughout the nation and the world.
