Entrepreneurial Passion, Entrepreneurial Education, Entrepreneurial Skills, Entrepreneurial IntentionAbstract
This study examines the impact of entrepreneurship education, entrepreneurial skills, and entrepreneurial passion on students' entrepreneurial intentions in public and private vocational schools in Mojokerto district. Using a quantitative approach with PLS-SEM analysis, data were collected from 346 respondents via Google Forms. The findings show that entrepreneurship education significantly influences entrepreneurial intentions, while entrepreneurial skills have a weaker direct effect. However, students actively engaged in practical activities, projects, and internships develop confidence, indirectly shaping their entrepreneurial intentions. Entrepreneurial passion plays a crucial role, as students with high enthusiasm and motivation are more committed to starting a business. Overall, entrepreneurship education and passion contribute significantly to fostering entrepreneurial intentions among vocational students.
