Entrepreneurship is not as yet a science, although it is among the most researched and most published areas. It is known, however, that entrepreneurship is a cultural phenomenon, that is to say, it is the fruit of peoples habits, practices and values. Entrepreneuring is, above all, a mental attitude which combines the motivation and the capacity of an individual, either on his/her own or integrated within a team, to identify an opportunity and carry it out with the objective of producing a new value or a new economic result. Professional education currently seeks to adjust to the demands of the job market and to technological innovations, intending to offer the student body access to new technology and the adjustment of a certain set of abilities and competenc ies through the accumulation of knowledge, of scientific and technological knowledge, of know-how, of operational abilities or domains and know how to be, indispensable attitudes in decision- making. Given this, the main aim of this research was to investigate and identify, alongside former pupils on technical courses at Col?gio Agr?cola de Cambori? (the Agricultural College in Camboriu, Santa Catarina), the educational needs concerning entrepreneurship which should be attended to in the elaboration of the curriculum grade for the Technical Courses at Col?gio Agr?cola de Cambori?.It was also confirmed that the perception former entrepreneurial students have of entrepreneurship, strong points and weak points collected throughout the duration of the technical course they completed, as well as, if the Col?gio Agr?cola de Cambori? could have provided better means for facilitating the act of entrepreneuring.The methodology used was research of a descriptive nature, with both quantitative and qualitative analyses. Questionnaires were applied to thirty-two former practicing entrepreneurs from various branches of business within the productive chain.During the data collection from the former entrepreneur students at the Col?gio Agr?cola de Cambori? it was observed that there were educational needs concerning entrepreneurship and they could be encompassed in the curriculum grade of the technical courses at this institute.Most of the former entrepreneurial students were motivated by opportunities such as: relationships with family and friends, technical training, perception of local needs and encouragement from friends.The following are defined as the most important entrepreneurial characteristics for solving management problems: creativity, self-confidence, the ability and the capacity to adapt.Among the difficulties come across in the management of their business, what stands out the most is the lack of capital and lack of planning.Most of the former entrepreneur students insisted they had good entrepreneur vision. Careful planning of the program contents for the disciplines offered is noticeably indispensable.The conclusion of the study is that the insertion of the discipline of entrepreneurship in the curriculum of technical courses at the Col?gio Agr?cola de Cambori? will be of great importance in the training of future technicians.
