Entrepreneurial Mindset Profile (EMP)

Issued by The University of Tennessee, Anderson Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation

Earner will complete the Entrepreneurial Mindset Profile (EMP) and discuss the results with ACEI EMP-certified staff. EMP is developed from extensive research into the traits, motivations and skills of entrepreneurs, and it is not based on theory or conjecture, but on hard data about the factors that actually distinguish entrepreneurs from non-entrepreneurs. The instrument shows solid evidence of reliability and validity.
