Innovation, creativitiy and entrepreneurship competence in higher education. Learning objectives and measurement

Abstract

In the permanent change context, innovation has become a vital value for the survival and development of organisations. The development of this increasingly important value will help students to improve their skills and to adapt to their future jobs in accordance with required characteristics. Competency describes what training participants should be able to do at the end of such training. Competency is acquired through the various learning objectives to be achieved. Innovation competency is closely related to Self-assessment and the learning methods, Ability to work in interactive communication situations, Ability to create and maintain connections work, Ability to cooperate in a multidisciplinary and multicultural environment and Ability to communicate and interact in an international environment, etc. In this chapter, we develop a method for measuring the innovation competencies in higher education by introducing different levels of mastery.
