“…Thus, Donoso-Gonzalez M., Pedraza-Navarro I., Palferro-Fernandez L. studied the impact of entrepreneurial education on the formation of personality and the definition of its entrepreneurial identity, they believe that it improves the adaptation of education seekers in a changing socio-economic environment [5]. Researchers Morris T. H., Konig P. D. in their work rely on the principles of independent learning, they formulated a theoretical basis for combining independence in learning with experimental learning for the development of adaptability, which is a necessary prerequisite for the development of entrepreneurial competence [13].…”

The problems of developing entrepreneurial competence among graduates of vocational education are relevant due to the economic crisis, the challenges of wartime, the need to reform the education system, its harmonization with the EU educational system. The purpose of the theoretical research is to determine the pedagogical problems of the development of entrepreneurial competence of students in institutions of vocational education in Ukraine after 2014 and until now. Theoretical (analysis, comparison, classification, systematization of data) and empirical research methods (interviews and observations) were used to identify such problems as youth employment, mobility; the content and quality of vocational education; readiness of vocational teachers to implement the competence approach in the educational process; adaptation of the educational process; the content, theory and practice in education; state standards in vocational education; low prestige of vocational education in society; legislation of Ukraine for self-employment, deregulation in business; harmonization of the professional education system of Ukraine with EU education. But it turned out that pedagogical and socio-economic problems co-exist together being a challenge for the development of entrepreneurial competence among students of vocational educational institutions. In order to solve pedagogical problems, the need to develop educational programs for the economic disciplines “Financial Literacy”, “Fundamentals of Entrepreneurship and Self-Employment”, methodological recommendations were substantiated for the effective development of entrepreneurial competence among students. To reduce the negative impact of socio-economic problems on the development of entrepreneurial competence among graduates of vocational educational institutions, it was suggested developing and submitting recommendations to the Chamber of Commerce, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and relevant ministries, although the determination of socioeconomic problems were not considered to be the purpose of this study. Also it was recommended to solve these problems as a complex of measures of a pedagogical and socio-economic nature due to their mutual influence.

Understanding the role of the factors that contribute to the development and growth of entrepreneurial universities is important for both the university itself and the global economy as a whole. Therefore, this study aimed to gain a deep understanding of the entrepreneurial university. The study was designed with a mixed-method approach in which quantitative and qualitative methods were used together. In the quantitative part of the mixed-method research, a systematic literature review of the entrepreneurial university concept was done and based on the results of the literature search obtained by quantitative methods, general concepts and categories and their relations with the contexts were revealed. In the qualitative part of the mixed-method research, in order to explain the entrepreneurial university understanding, semi-structured interviews were conducted with academicians in universities. According to the findings, it was found that conceptualization was very important to understand the entrepreneurial university. The university was considered as an institution that serves students and companies via some channels, such as research reports, an academic publication, or a patent received at the end of a project. As the entrepreneurial university paradigm is being studied by various institutions in the world, this study contributes to the literature both as a theoretical study and as a study that reveal the concepts of the entrepreneurial university. By providing a conceptual framework, the research will contribute to the literature as a theoretical study by aiming to explain the service systems (universities, government, firms) based on the exchange of skills and the creation of common value in the knowledge-based society on the entrepreneurial university paradigm, which is extremely popular in the world. Fındings from the systematic literature review and interviews with academicians were analysed comparatively, and a conceptual framework that evaluates the concepts and variables of the entrepreneurial university with a holistic view is presented.

“…Fifth, entrepreneurship factors should also be integrated into the curriculum. Entrepreneurship, the key transversal competence applicable across all spheres of life (Seikkula-Leino et al, 2021 ; Donoso-González et al, 2022 ), is believed to be beneficial for the advancement of interpreters' professionalism (Álvarez-Álvarez and Arnáiz-Uzquiza, 2017 ). As investigated, professionalism is of substantial instrumental value to strengthen students' concern and confidence regarding their future careers.…”

Career adaptability of interpreting students: A case study of its development and interactions with interpreter competences in three Chinese universities

2022

The issue of employability has already become a well-delineated topic of study among interpreting educators. However, the current literature still lacks descriptive research on interpreting students' employability development and ignores the developmental effects of interpreter competences in this process. Moreover, the advantage of using career adaptability for measurement is also under-researched. This exploratory case study aims at taking an initial step forward, surveying interpreting students' career adaptability development and the developmental effects of different interpreter competences on major adaptability resources, and ultimately diagnosing curriculum problems and making modifications accordingly. Thirty grade 2019 interpreting students from three Chinese universities contributed to data collection, through six questionnaires in a two-wave survey. The results highlight that, throughout the Chinese MTI program, interpreting students could become more concerned and well prepared for their future (concern), more curious to explore themselves and their surroundings (curiosity), and more capable of solving problems (confidence). The results also indicate that students' knowledge and language competence serve as the major facilitators in this process, and that other interpreter competences, such as psychological competence, transfer competence, professionalism, and cross-cultural competence, are also instrumental. In order to further boost their adaptability constructs, the results suggest that students' language and knowledge competence, professionalism, and cross-cultural and mental agility still need to be improved. Five suggestions for curriculum revision have been raised accordingly. As an initial effort, the current study will hopefully inspire further studies on interpreting students' career adaptability and add more knowledge to the curriculum design from this viewpoint.
