Résumé

The starting point for the analysis of entrepreneurial programs that are being introduced in schools is the “approach by competences” as an alternative paradigm in the orientation of teaching and learning. The article analyzes the program “A Empresa”, developed by Aprender a Empreender — Junior Achievement — Portugal, from its implementation in two high schools in Lisbon Metropolitan Area. It describes the process of implementation and operation of the program that operates in parallel to formal disciplinary curriculum, and wonder about the expectations, challenges and motivations created in teachers and students.
