The Entrepreneur’s Skills Certificate® comprises four modules. Each module is concluded with a standardised examination and a certificate.
 
The content of module A is focused on basic concepts and fundamental economic relationships. Module A can be taken from school grade 7 upwards. Modules B, C and UP are offered from the upper secondary level onwards: module B deals with national economic content, module C outlines the foundations of business management. Each of these modules is concluded with its own online examination.
 
The concluding module UP is undertaken from grade 11 onwards or, after leaving school, at an adult learning institution (WIFI). Module UP is concluded in Austria with a board examination at an office for master examinations of the chambers of commerce. If all of the four Entrepreneur’s Skills Certificate examinations have been successfully passed, they replace the entrepreneur’s examination prescribed by law in Austria for regulated crafts and trades.
