✿ Week 0 · Your starting point

The self-assessment.

Fifteen competences from EntreComp, the European framework for entrepreneurship. For each one you write a real example first, then choose your level. This is your baseline, and in Week 6 you do it again to see how far you have come.

✿ The eight levels

Eight steps from support to leading the change.

The levels follow the EntreComp progression model (Bacigalupo et al., 2016). Most people starting out rate between 2 and 4 on most competences, and that is exactly what a baseline is for.

  1. Write your example first.Something real from the last twelve months. No example means a low rating.
  2. Then choose the level.Rate what you did beyond your normal teaching, not the teaching itself.
  3. Send it and keep a copy.Your answers go to me, and you can print or save your own copy for your portfolio.
Intrapreneurs: rate yourself for getting something new adopted inside your institution.
