Sažetak

This paper presents the general trends in higher education, and differences in approach to entrepreneurial education and the acquisition of entrepreneurial competencies in vocational and university studies of entrepreneurial orientation. Vocational studies in Croatia have significant professional and educational resources that have not yet been sufficiently exploited for collaboration with other sectors. Lifelong learning programs will strengthen the connection between these educational institutions with economic, civil and public sectors, as well as make closer connection between practice, research and science. For the purpose of this study, examples of good practice in the field of providing quality services for the development of family entrepreneurship in educational institutions have been explored. Furthermore, the successful European and American programs are presented, because they could serve as a benchmark for future planning of these programs in Croatia. The following methods are used: search of secondary sources, the survey related to the needs of family businesses, and the method of screening the existing programs in thematic conferences on the family businesses. Referring to the best practice models for defining new programs have been offered, and conditions for the provision of educational programs as part of lifelong learning for the family businesses have been established. The purpose of this paper is to raise awareness of the need to use the experience of the European and worldwide best practice examples, to increase the quality of lifelong learning, and provide systematic training of teachers for quality conduction in teaching and in such programs.
