In order to do so, they often engage in using a wide variety of pedagogical tools, which generally include business plan competitions, field practicum experiences,<\/div>\n<div>simulations, and \u2018live\u2019 cases that have been introduced to develop entrepreneurial skills\u00a0and that usually affect self-perceptions and intentions.<\/div>\n<div>The goals of the training may vary, but are generally expressed in terms\u00a0of \u2018developing entrepreneurial skill sets\u2019, \u2018enhancing an entrepreneurial mindset\u2019,<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\u2018stimulating entrepreneurial behaviour\u2019, and \u2018preparing and helping students\u2019 entrepreneurial endeavours\u2019. A common goal of many training programmes in entrepreneurship is to stimulate entrepreneurship in its various forms. Of course, definitions of the terms \u2018entrepreneurship\u2019 and \u2018entrepreneurial\u2019 also vary a lot among scholars and practitioners. Nevertheless, in those training\u00a0programmes\u00a0entrepreneurship is generally seen as an attractive career choice that also affords individuals the opportunity to contribute to society through the introduction of innovative products, services, and technological processes. Not surprisingly, one question that often interests scholars and educators in entrepreneurship is how to stimulate it through training. In this sense, previous research has indicated the importance of self-perceptions and intentions as antecedents of actual behaviour (e.g., Ajzen, 1991; Krueger and Carsrud,<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>1993). In particular, research has shown that intentions are heavily influenced by individuals\u2019 perceptions of their own abilities regarding skill sets (i.e., self-efficacy, Bird, 1988; Krueger et al., 2000). This has led scholars to suggest the use of entrepreneurial intentions and self-efficacy beliefs as measures of entrepreneurship education effectiveness (Fayolle et al., 2005; Botha et al., 2006). This has also led educators to try to increase students\u2019 positive perceptions about their abilities relative to the entrepreneurial skill set necessary to launch a new venture, i.e., their perceived entrepreneurial self-efficacy (SE).<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>Reference:<\/div>\n<div>Kickul, J., Gundry, L.K.,\u00a0Barbosa, S.D. and Simms, S.
