Coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19) restrictions significantly influenced the learning and delivery of educational programs, especially traditionally hands-on educational programs. Entrepreneurship education and training (EET) studies on learners’ perceptions have so far focused on formal EET in university settings or Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). This paper explores youth perceptions of a non-formal, online EET program conducted during the pandemic. Perceptions matter since they tend to translate into attitudes, which in turn potentially translate into achieving learning outcomes (or not).
