Entrepreneuriat Québec is the result of collaboration between visionary community advocates from different school boards who, in 1994, wanted to share working and teaching methods in addition to resources for the Ministry of Education’s Lancement d’une entreprise program that began in 1992. Over the next years, there were many revisions of the Lancement d’une entreprise course all with the objective of making it increasingly more efficient, relevant, flexible and adaptable to the situation of each participant. They also added an English version Starting a business in addition to the Gérer efficacement mon entreprise (Managing my business) program which aims to offer continuing education for entrepreneurs already in business and who want to improve their knowledge and effectiveness in managing their businesses.
