The study therefore, examined the digital entrepreneurial skills that would prepare the students for self-reliant motive in a technology-driven world. The descriptive survey research design was adopted. 238 students and lecturers comprised the study population and no sampling was done because it was a manageable size. Structured questionnaire was used for data collection which was validated by three experts and tested to be highly reliability with a co-efficient value of 0.87 using Cronbach Alpha. The arithmetic mean and standard deviation were used to analyze the data gathered. The null hypotheses were tested using t-test inferential statistics. The findings revealed among others the need for ICT proficiency in order to stimulate innovativeness and creativity for self-sufficiency.The findings revealed a non significant difference in the mean rating of respondents&#8217; abilities in relation to information and communication technology. However, there is a significant difference in the mean rating of respondents&#8217; abilities relating to their innovative\/creative skills and marketing skills needed to support themselves and contribute their quotas to national economic development. It was therefore recommended among others that business educators should ensure that students acquire sufficient ICT, creative and innovative skills as well as marketing skills prior to graduation.<\/em><em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Keywords:<\/strong>&nbsp;Digital Entrepreneurial Skills,Innovative,&nbsp;Marketing and marketing skills<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/INTERNATIONAL-JOURNAL-OF-ENTREPRENEURSHIP-IJETI-VOL.1-NO.1-JUNE-2024_060227-255-274-1.pdf\">Download Article<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adeola ARAOYE1, Aminat Folakemi ADELEKE2, Alaba Folashade MEGBUWAWON3&amp; Yusuff Oyebisi AYOOLA4 1,2,3&amp;4&nbsp;Department Of Business And Entrepreneurship Education, Faculty Of Vocational, Innovation And Engineering Education, Emmanuel Alayande University Of Education, Oyo Corresponding Author: adeoladotaraoye@gmail.com08035841822 &nbsp; Abstract The clarion call for students to be highly equipped with digital entrepreneurship skills prior to graduation to promote their self-reliant [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-182","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-vol-1-issue-1-june-2024"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/182","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=182"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/182\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":185,"href":"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/182\/revisions\/185"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=182"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=182"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=182"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
