Main Goal

Make the students aware of the importance of self employment as an important option in their profesional careers with lectures of former students who have become entrepreneurs with useful projects.

Organisation

One full day, aimed at all the students who are interested in entrepreneurship.

Resources

A solid network of former students, a main hall with multimedia facilities.

Outcome

Sudents encouraged to start up a company, to become entrepreneurs or at least to understand that self employment is always a chance to build a career.

The Vocational Training and Guidance Department considers that the best way to encourage students to become entrepreneurs and finally launch their start-ups is showing them good examples of former students who have achieved to make a living through their own business.

The entrepreneur day consists on an event that is held annually with the main goal of encouraging entrepreneurship among the students, and a secondary goal of the event is keeping alive the network of former students. This collaboration between the school and former students has a direct effect on the entrepreneurial culture that we want to transmit to current students.

The activity is developed within ComunicArte, a three days long event during which the regular schedule classes stops and professionals of the Audiovisual and Graphic sector come to give lectures about new technologies and job procedures. One of the three days is the Entrepenur Day.

In the audience there are not only current students, but we also receive another teachers from other schools of Madrid with the aim of improving the entrepreneurial teaching skills.

In 2019 the entrepreur day was held on January the 30th with the following schedule:
