Babson Program for Entrepreneurship Educators Certification
in Guadalajara, Mexico
The fifth and final module of the Babson Program for Entrepreneurship Educators Certification at Tecnológico de Monterrey will be held July 27-30, 2009 at Tecnológico de Monterrey, Guadalajara, Mexico.
The objective of these five modules has been to provide a modular, multi-year learning experience for 50 members of the Tec de Monterrey faculty in which they learned about content and pedagogy to become more effective, innovative entrepreneurship teachers. More specifically, the program provided information based upon Babson’s experience in developing and maintaining its entrepreneurship program. Throughout the two-year modular experience, participants learned about case-writing and teaching and wrote teaching cases based on Mexican entrepreneurs. The content of the individual modules was as follows:
-
Module 1 (July 2007): Creativity, Opportunity Recognition and Business Planning;
-
Module 2 (Dec. 2007): Building an Entrepreneurship Center and Case-Writing;
