The Polish Association of Creativity Poland conducted a pilot project to increase student competence in innovation and entrepreneurship. The project involved 150 schools across Poland implementing local creative projects like fashion shows, theater festivals, and concerts between September 2013 and April 2014. Teachers received training workshops while students completed surveys. Preliminary results found that students gained experience organizing ventures and working in groups, learning valuable skills, while more outcomes will be observed as the pilots continue through May 2014.
