This paper analyses the effect of combining two entrepreneurship teaching methods on developing students’ entrepreneurial skills in Tunisia. The developed model suggests that entrepreneurial intention is supposed to depend on students’ creativity. The latter in turn depends on three variables, specifically: teaching methods, managing ambiguity, and core self-evaluation. Core self-evaluation depends not only on entrepreneurial attitude but also on entrepreneurial knowledge which depends on financial literacy and develops entrepreneurial mindset too. Finally, the latter develops entrepreneurial attitude. We are using structural equation modeling (SEM-PLS) to test the proposed model. Based on a sample of 92 management students from the Faculty of Economics and Management of Tunis, our finding indicates that there are statistically significant relationships between all the variables composing our structural model. As a result, universities are invited to vary the methods used to teach entrepreneurship and to combine theoretical and practical methods to develop students’ entrepreneurial skills and to improve their entrepreneurial intention.
