Gender-Smart Entrepreneurship Education & Training Plus
GEET+
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced small business support organisations and educational institutions to re-think how they deliver entrepreneurship education and training. The unprecedented transition to online delivery methods presents an opportunity to create more inclusive entrepreneurship courses, programs and small business support services.
Authored by Dr. Barbara Orser and Dr. Catherine Elliott, Gender-Smart Entrepreneurship Education & Training Plus (GEET+) presents a toolkit of resources to support inclusive entrepreneurship education and training. Telfer faculty are also collaborating with global knowledge partners, such as Women’s Economic Initiative, to adopt insights from this ground-breaking report and strengthen the design and delivery of entrepreneurship courses and programs.
