We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
⢠Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
⢠Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
⢠Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
⢠Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
⢠Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Ref. [1] stressed that to meet the economic needs of the
21st century, a change in the education system towards the
entrepreneurship or âentrepreneurially-drivenâ is really
important. Hence, entrepreneurship is a major economic
driver in the world that leads to create job as well as wealth
[2]. Although entrepreneurship education and training
increasingly featured as one of the important agenda of
education, and has gained a place in higher education
institutions and schools, many researchers think that
education and entrepreneurship in the country is still less
favorable than in western countries [3], [4]. The
effectiveness of entrepreneurship education and training
programs need the understanding of the world of
entrepreneurship in teaching and learning approaches [5].
Lifelong learning programs is enhanced with the
upgrading skills and reskilling offered by educational and
training institutions like community colleges. In Budget
2011, human capital development has become the main
essence through the implementation of a training program
of 1Malaysia. Since its inception in 2001, community
college gives the opportunity to post-secondary students
through the full-time and part-time of technical education

community colleges and others. Thus, community colleges
have played a large role in reskilling and upskilling
programs in which benefits to 507,940 participants. The
government has targeted that community collegesâ total
enrollment will increase from 31,000 students in 2010 to
120,000 students by 2015 [6].
In addition, MoHE has taking strategies in the
implementation of the national higher education strategic
plan (NHESP) for the period from 2011-2015 [7] on
enhancing human capital development to empower higher
education and improving the quality of teaching and
learning. This has been placed the community college to a
major challenge to improve the quality of human capital
that is knowledgeable, competent and able to meet market
demands. The challenges start with the development of the
curriculum in accordance with market needs and the
dynamic changes of teaching and learning methods.
Teaching and learning culture must change and transform in
producing the quality of human capital such excellent
knowledge, skills, creative and innovative. MoHE also put a
few key performance indicators (KPI) and one of them is
accelerating entrepreneurship education programs in
universities, polytechnics and community colleges.
II. LITERATURE REVIEW
According to [8], if entrepreneurship education aims to
create more entrepreneurs, the teaching approaches should
give students practical exposure in a controlled environment.
There is an important in educating the students that
entrepreneur could come from various backgrounds and
provides students with a positive view of the tremendous
opportunities available in the future. Entrepreneurial skills
acquired could be applied in all forms of employment or
career. In fact, a person employed by a business entity can
apply entrepreneurial thinking in the internal management
of the business [5].
The National Mission (2006-2020) is the second core of
the government plans to increase capacity and innovation
and nurture first class mentality by encouraging technology
entrepreneurs. In consistent with that, some universities
have increase the efforts in producing knowledgeable and
skilled people in entrepreneurship. These are ultimately
realizing the mission to develop human capitals with first
class mentality. In 10th Plan, the government is committed
in developing creativity through initiatives such as
mainstreaming of TVET to improve skills and quality of
students. Entrepreneurship education curriculum was
introduced to instill an element of innovation to stimulate
entrepreneurship in education programs at several higher
learning institutions either as a compulsory or an elective

subject. Entrepreneurship curriculum and training model
has been redrafted and built to enhance the knowledge and
skills for various target groups. There are studies that have
been conducted to see the acceptance of students from
various fields of engineering and technology found they
agreed to accept the subject of entrepreneurship as an
elective subject or absorb into the programs [9].
III. PROBLEM STATEMENT
In 2010 a total of 7,672 graduates with certificates and
diplomas from community college in order to meet the job
market in various sectors. A graduate tracer studies have
been conducted by the Department of Polytechnic and
Community College Education, DPCCE, MoHE in 2010
showed 53.1% community colleges graduates have been
successful in pursuing their careers in respective fields. This
Tracer studies of community college graduates have been
carried out since 2003 for obtaining feedback on the
education and assess the employability of community
college graduates.
The community college students graduate with skills in
various fields of engineering and technical whom to be self-
employed in the field of entrepreneurship is still less
favorable. Graduates Tracer Study of Polytechnic and
Community College in 2008 has shown the number of the
community college graduates obtained employment was
1,797 (48.6%) while the number of those who do not work
was 1,432 (38.7%). However, 56.7% of those who do not
work stated that they are still looking for a job during the
study. Community College Tracer Study Report 2010 also
show the number of people who get involved in
entrepreneurship by running their own company has the
second highest number of 15.7% after working in the local
private sector by 64.7%.
Implementation of entrepreneurship education and
training programs in community colleges have a great
impact on the number of self-employed graduates whom
engaged in entrepreneurship is only 4.1%. Even so, they
stated a higher aspiration to become entrepreneurs which is
75.8% [10]. Therefore, community college students are the
target groups should be given attention and emphasis on
increasing opportunities and entrepreneurial skills training
program implemented by the government today. Moreover,
community college graduates are the youth of the future
entrepreneurs generation whom need to inculcate values,
attitudes, knowledge and excellent skills in order to
generate economic development of the country in the future.

VI. DISCUSSION
In curriculum development programs, results and the
need for the supply of topics that have direct relevance to
the scope of the requirements of a career skills and
disciplines. Entrepreneurship education curriculum should
be consisted business education-oriented emphasis on career
skills required. As [12] says that an entrepreneurship
education are able to influence students to choose
entrepreneurship as a career. Content topics offered by the
BEM must be relevant to the needs of the development of
entrepreneurial behavior in students.
The result showed that the mean score for the item of
interest is teaching BEM is the highest mean of 4.02 and
standard deviation of 0.75. Mean scores for items lecturer in
the basic facilities needed to teach the BEM is 3.45 and the
standard deviation of 0.67 which is lower than the mean
overall perceptions of lecturers towards BEM. The findings
showed that community colleges faculty have a moderate
interest to teach the BEM. Although the level of the
lecturers on the BEM content showed moderately high,
facilities needed in teaching and learning proses is still not
satisfactory.
However, the perception of lecturers on the BEM as a
whole is moderately higher at the mean level of 3.73 and
standard deviation of 0.69. This concluded that community
colleges lecturers have good views and ability in
implementing the basic entrepreneurship module to students.
This study is consistent with the findings [13] for evaluating
the implementation of Islamic Education Curriculum at
Polytechnic MoHE reflects the input dimension evaluation
in Islamic Studies lecturer. Similarly, this research study
align to [14] in the input evaluation indicates that teachers
are confidence and found to be effective towards their
teaching skills and training.
The result is that students strongly agreed that they
learned new things through BEM shows the highest mean
score of 4.35 and standard deviation of 0.72. Students
stated that the provision of adequate learning time is 4.06
mean score and standard deviation of 0.73. However, the
mean is lower than the overall mean. Students' perception of
BEM was generally high level of 4.21 and standard
deviation of 0.68. This means that community college
students agreed that their exposure to entrepreneurship
module and it is very necessary to develop the
entrepreneurial behavior in them fully.
Methods of teaching and learning activities can
encourage students to be motivated in applying the business
environment [15]. Therefore this study can confirm the
prediction that the evaluation input in student and lecturers
have been affecting the performance evaluation ot this
module. Their high perception will have an impact on
student achievement in terms of development of
entrepreneurial behavior among the students are better.
Therefore, lecturers must ensure that students in the
entrepreneurship program are innovative and competitive,
both mentally and physically.
VII. CONCLUSION
The culture of teaching and learning in community
colleges need to be changed and transform in the quality of
human capital, excellent knowledge and skills that can
generate socio-economic improvement and community with
a high income. The students of community colleges have to
increase their confident so that they can become a
successful entrepreneur.
The study that will be carried out are also expected to be
leveraged by the students in enhancing entrepreneurial skills
and knowledge acquired during the exposure study at
another institution. Next it will provide guidance to
educators, particularly at community colleges to develop
entrepreneurial behavior and thus can be applied to students
during the teaching and learning process.
