USASBE Entrepreneurship Education Awards
← Return to the USASBE Awards page
A series of awards presented to identify, recognize, celebrate and publicize excellence in entrepreneurship education in all forms and at all levels. Awards are for exemplary programs that reflect innovation, quality, comprehensiveness, sustainability, transferability, depth of support, and impact.
In May of 2011 the USASBE board approved important changes to these awards. The revisions resulted in the consolidation, re-classification, and clarification of evaluation criteria for multiple awards. There are now two classifications of awards: Excellence in Entrepreneurship Education and Special Recognition in Entrepreneurship Education Innovation. The revised categorization reflects the spirit that the future of organizations like USASBE is dependent upon the contributions and sharing of ideas and efforts among its membership. The past winners and materials listed below are from the categories before the May 2011 revisions.
