Startup Ausbildung!
Startup Ausbildung! transfers proven concepts of entrepreneurship education to the special requirements and conditions of vocational training. The aim is to strengthen young people in the key future skills of entrepreneurial thinking and action. Therefore, the ZE Center for Entrepreneurship at the PFH Private University of Applied Sciences Göttingen, as a cooperation partner, conducts workshops lasting several days at vocational schools in Lower Saxony and Hamburg. In addition, the program qualifies educational specialists at vocational schools to specifically promote these skills, e.g. through the use of special methods and content in the regular curriculum. Startup Ausbildung! is a module of Startup Zukunft!, a program of the German Children and Youth Foundation. The project is funded by the Claussen Simon Foundation, Dieter Lück Youth Foundation, Finnern Foundation, Hans Weisser Foundation and the Heinz Nixdorf Foundation.
