Abstract

The paper undertakes a theoretical discussion on the concept of entrepreneurship education, as well as indices/strategies for effective planning in management of entrepreneurship education programmes. The study adopts an exploratory discussion on the pattern of entrepreneurship funding in Nigeria and its implications on the employable graduates. The study discovers that federal government allocates less 10% of its yearly budget to education. This article notes with concern that low level of funding will have a serious impact on the socio-economic development of the country due to increased rate of armed robbery, prostitution, kidnapping etc resulting from unemployment. Therefore, the paper concludes that things needed to be done with money in order to improve on entrepreneurship education ( such as investing on the score skills and the promotion of entrepreneurship as interdisciplinary learning, improving on the quality and quantity of experiential activities across disciplines that develop applied knowledge and experiences in self-employment etc, could be done if the sector is adequately funded.
