Abstract

The history of entrepreneurial training may be dated back to the distant 1938, when Shigeru Fijii, who was the pioneer of such teaching at the University of Kobe in Japan, set up a course for training for entrepreneurship (Alberti et al. 2004). Despite this, most of these innovative entrepreneurial courses were first introduced in the American universities, which have always had a marked propension towards this more practical than pedagogical type of teaching of such subjects. In fact, many American universities in fact have a long tradition of methods of training for entrepreneurship, as confirmed by the creation and development of business schools and by methods documented in entrepreneurial courses, but above all by opening a pathway for studies of entrepreneurship as a legitimate area of academic programs (Franke and Lüthje 2004; Raichaudhuri 2005).
