The aim of the project is education for entrepreneurship, respectively entrepreneurship in secondary technical and vocational schools in the South Bohemia Region and exchange of experience with foreign partners – Latvia and Portugal. The Czech Republic has so far paid attention to entrepreneurship education in secondary schools only with economic focus. A new priority for European companies aimed at increasing the competitiveness of the application of entrepreneurship education as well as in other types of schools. Its aim, especially in EU countries, is cultivating the skills and competencies associated with individual business people. First of all is recommended, in terms of creativity, innovation and risk-bearing capacity and to plan and manage projects. Sense is also in changing attitudes to entrepreneurship such as with all social, commercial and political aspects, especially in Eastern European economies reprivatized.The project will realize the analysis of the situation in this area in the countries involved in the project. On the basis will be created a specific training program for teachers of secondary vocational schools and vocational schools in teaching entrepreneurship. The next step will be the implementation of the pilot tests - pilot testing of training course for teachers. Entrepreneurship education will be included in the school curriculum as an elective, but also the project. The issue can be addressed for example in the educational field Man and the world of work. The content of the curriculum can be classified into teaching topics such as application of existing fields (which can be increased by using the number of available hours), use of project teaching, organizing meetings and excursions, etc. Entrepreneurship education can be integrated into several training courses (subjects related content e.g. civics, family education, practical activities). Methods of entrepreneurship education will be specific, primarily because the acquisition of skills, attitudes and abilities will be achieved in cooperation with companies and institutions. Activation methods must prevail, especially in problematic cases, in the form of staging and design and economic games, starting and running fictitious or student companies. It is much to be done to determine appropriate methods for evaluating the progress of pupils and students in shaping their competence, innovation and entrepreneurship, which is more or less a problem concerning all other core competences.
