1 Introduction
Entrepreneurship education since 2010 has begun to be included in the learning curriculum
considering the increasing unemployment rate in Indonesia [1]. Currently, the number of
entrepreneurs in Indonesia is approximately 3.47% [2] of the total population of Indonesia, the total
population of Indonesia. This number is equivalent to the ratio in Vietnam and is ranked 74th out of
126 countries [3]. This effort to create new entrepreneurs will positively impact employment in
Indonesia.
Entrepreneurship learning is expected to create students who can create new businesses that
match their skills and interests [4]. Another goal is to create a mindset within students and college
graduates to be oriented towards finding work and make students aware that there are other options,
namely creating job opportunities [5]. There are so many expectations that are placed on students to
be able to build a better Indonesia by providing entrepreneurial learning. Another expected change
is a change in mindset from looking for work to looking for employees to hire [6].
