The aim of the research is to develop an innovative model for entrepreneurship education through a training institute, with the application of STEM based integrated activities. For the study the following tasks have been defined: analysis of the current state of the problem in the scientific literature and a study of good European and national practices for entrepreneurship education, analysis of the didactic aspects of entrepreneurship training through a training institute for students aged between 15-19 years, development of an experimental program for extracurricular activity using active methods and an integrated STEM approach, development of variants of interdisciplinary situations and learning projects combined with STEM.
