摘要：Global competition has created considerable uncertainty among many young people. Therefore, the education and motivation of young people who takes initiatives at all levels of education is an extremely important part of lifelong learning and education, and also forms an important part of general human education. The main purpose of this study is to verify the hypothesis that long-lasting innovation-entrepreneurial education has an effect on improving innovation and entrepreneurial skills in pupils. The study involved 146 fourteen- and fifteen-year-old pupils from 22 Slovenian primary schools who participated in entrepreneurial workshops for one year. The instruments used in the research were a questionnaire for measuring innovative behaviour, and a knowledge test. The data were collected before and upon the completion of the entrepreneurial workshops. The findings show that innovation as well as entrepreneurial skills can be developed and taught, and they also suggest that entrepreneurial circles are a good way of promoting creativity and innovation in schools. Innovation is an activity that can be learned through education to improve basic entrepreneurial skills and the development of entrepreneurial competence. From the perspective of sustainable solutions, approaches are coming to the fore that emphasize creative problem-solving among young people; such an ability is not only a universally useful skill, but is also the essence of entrepreneurial thinking and acting.
