Due to its growing practical relevance, sustainability entrepreneurship receives a high degree of academic attention. However, literature on how to educate sustainability entrepreneurs remains scarce. A promising didactical approach in this context is service learning. We ask if service learning is an effective way to educate sustainability entrepreneurs, and which framework conditions impact those educators. First, we draw on an established sustainable entrepreneurship capability framework and provide direct evidence from entrepreneurship educators about the effectiveness of service learning. Second, based on grounded theory, qualitative interviews with those educators reveal a framework composed of personal and institutional factors that they have to navigate when provide service learning. Our findings contribute to the interface of service learning and sustainability entrepreneurship by highlighting its effectiveness and the framework conditions for educators.

This paper presents outcomes from a course with focus on developing businesslike capabilities among undergraduate students. The purpose is to explore the need of trust in preparations of UI-collaboration and how outcomes are influencing trust in an education context. Findings indicate that word of mouth is essential to create needed trust. The amount of human resources students represent is found to be an important "qualifier", while created trust is the "order winner" in the establishment of UI-collaboration.
