• Entrepreneurship education operates with venture creation in assessment and impact.
• Five factors are identified with the purpose to inform future research on the area.
• Social entrepreneurship education research is analyzed through the five factors.
• A holistic person perspective is introduced to supplement the five factors.
• The factors and the holistic person perspective are implemented in a case study.
This article discusses existing research on impact of entrepreneurship education and questions the consistency between underlying understandings of entrepreneurship, formal purposes of entrepreneurship education and present evaluation methods in the field. From literature about assessment and impact of entrepreneurship education and social entrepreneurship education, a number of interrelated factors are identified that are important to address in assessment and measurement of impact. In addition to these factors, a supplementary dimension is suggested – the holistic person perspective – in order to offer a measurement approach beyond the borders of a single course or program. From a case study of social entrepreneurship at the Humanities in Denmark, it is described how students develop entrepreneurial experiences both in courses, between courses and in their daily life. The argument of the article is that it can be fruitful to understand entrepreneurial activities in a dynamic and holistic manner with attention to extended time and space dimensions in order to fully capture assessment and impact of entrepreneurship education.
