February 3, 2021 - February 23, 2021

Avoid stressful winter travel and sickness by joining us for this online training from the comfort of your home or office! This four-week online Entrepreneurial Mindset Facilitator Certification Training prepares participants to instill an entrepreneurial mindset in their classroom, organizations, and communities. To do this, we start by providing attendees with a foundational understanding of the mindset and methods of everyday entrepreneurs. By focusing on and honing one’s creativity, critical thinking, cooperation, and empathy skills, our Entrepreneurial Mindset Certification exposes the hidden mechanisms that help or inhibit us from reaching our full potential.

In this online training, you will develop a deeper understanding of the eight life lessons by taking you through the various editions of the Ice House Programs in their entirety. Simultaneously, you will learn about our research into the entrepreneurial mindset and we will get together to discuss these concepts further as well as the best methods for the facilitation of these concepts through live Zoom sessions. In addition to the live sessions, you will engage in a mix of recorded presentations, small group and individual activities, discussions, and experiential, problem-based learning.

Upon successful completion of the certification training, participants will receive an Entrepreneurial Mindset Facilitator Certificate qualifying them to facilitate any of the Ice House Entrepreneurship Programs.

Why You Should Attend

While you do not need to be a subject matter expert in entrepreneurship, you do need to be an effective facilitator of learning by supporting, guiding, and monitoring the entrepreneurial learning process. This interactive training is a deep dive into the program philosophy and Opportunity Discovery Process. ELI’s Entrepreneurial Mindset Facilitator Certification is designed to equip anyone with the necessary tools and techniques to effectively facilitate.

Regardless of who you teach or serve, an entrepreneurial mindset provides a new perspective; one that will expose new opportunities, ignite their ambition, and cultivate the confidence, creativity, self-reliance, and resourcefulness that are essential for anyone to adapt and thrive in today’s rapidly changing world.

“Exquisite and unique. The skills and learning from this are applicable in all phases of economy. This is a necessary training for all.”

– Ngozi Ogoke, International Energy Business Consultant

“I would recommend this to any teacher and parent. It has ignited a storm of ideas in my brain that I can’t wait to deliver to my students. We finally have a true 21st century model for education, where the 19th-20th century industrial model of assembly line academics is now fluid and flexible, student-driven quest to develop skill and problem solving through an entrepreneurial mindset.”

– Chris Bouffard, High School Teacher

 – Ray Keevy, Workforce Professional
