ABSTRACT
There are three types of assessment: assessment for learning, assessment of learning, and assessment
as learning. Assessment as learning refers to the use of ongoing self-assessment, reflection, and deeper
understanding. Within the entrepreneurial program of the initial vocational-technical schools, the role of
assessment refers to the facilitation of the students’ personality (commitment to self-assessment; tolerance
to ambiguity, uncertainty, as well as creativity, self-reliance, adaptability, motivation to excel, leader-
ship) that are expected to line skills for a successful entrepreneurial competence. This chapter analyzes
the specific features of the assessment model for entrepreneurial education programs. The core of the
model is an instructional dynamic and flexible strategy, based on integration formative and summative
assessment. Thus, the course in entrepreneurial competence is divided into three modules. The finality
of each module is measured by formative computer-based assessment tests.
