Abstract
Entrepreneurial competencies are deemed necessary for potential entrepreneurs to pursue entrepreneurial endeavors. The study sought to investigate the personal entrepreneurial competence levels of Mabolo National High School technical-vocational livelihood - cookery students. This is a quantitative-descriptive study of 50 technical-vocational livelihood-cookery students at Mabolo National High School. The main instrument, which is composed of three components, was modified. The data was collected, sorted, tabulated, and assessed via frequency distribution, weighted mean, ranking, and t-test. On the one hand, the study found that the respondents manifested a moderate level of all entrepreneurial competencies. Information seeking, self-confidence, opportunity seeking, and persistence all had a high weighted mean and were rated 1.5th and 3.5th, respectively. On the other hand, commitment to work contracts and risk-taking were ranked 9th and 10th, respectively, and were characterized as weak areas. Also, it unveils that sex and grade level do not determine students' entrepreneurial competencies. The study suggests that Mabolo National High School students, under the guidance of their teachers, should engage in direct observation and hands-on experiences, like workshops and visits to small and medium enterprises, to improve their entrepreneurial skills. Additionally, the researchers proposed a seminar that would develop the entrepreneurial competencies of the Technical Vocational Livelihood - Cookery students.
