Wisconsin's Framework is adapted from the National Content Standards for Entrepreneurship Education (www.entre-ed.org) and focuses on four main areas: Traits and Behaviors, Foundational Skills, Entrepreneurial Process Skills, and Business Functions. State Superintendent Tony Evers sums it up this way, "Entrepreneurship Education...is about creating and nurturing a learning environment that promotes...(these) traits and behaviors."
Entrepreneurship Literacy in Wisconsin is a PRIORITY! To best address this priority, the Department of Public Instruction is pleased to announce the following resources for educators to create a culture of innovation for their students!

Wisconsin's Vision for
Entrepreneurship Education
The Department of Public Instruction, with support from the Department of Financial Institutions,convened the Entrepreneurship Education Task Force (the task force) to develop a vision for schools and districts interested in evaluating and developing or improving a program for entrepreneurship education. The task force recognizes that Wisconsin’s competitive edge in the global economy depends on the talent it develops for innovation and entrepreneurship. The development of such talent is fostered in an environment that encourages entrepreneurial traits and behaviors in and through all areas of the curriculum.
