Abstract

This study aims to examine the impact of entrepreneurial course instructors' abilities on students' learning outcomes and the mediating role of students' self-efficacy in China. A survey was conducted among 395 university students in China with 358 valid responses to investigate the relationship between entrepreneurial course instructors' abilities and students' learning outcomes. The statistical results reveal a significant relationship between entrepreneurial course instructors' abilities and students' learning outcomes. Students' acquisition of entrepreneurship-related knowledge and abilities can be improved through entrepreneurship education. Students' perception of the quality of teachers in entrepreneurship education highlights the need for institutions to address the quality of instructors to better support students' learning in entrepreneurship education. The findings suggest that investing in the development and training of entrepreneurship course instructors can have a positive impact on students' learning outcomes in entrepreneurship education. This study contributes to the existing literature by highlighting the significance of entrepreneurial course instructors' abilities and students' self-efficacy in shaping learning outcomes in entrepreneurship education particularly in the context of China.
