Although I have worked with Edinburgh I'm not familiar with Richard Harrison or his work, but he is quite right in my view, especially if he means the business school environment that does not look beyond its own walls of experience. Luckily for us in the UK we have bodies like Enterprise Educators UK and the National Centre for Entrepreneurship in Education to help us to see further. Moreover, we have the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education Guidelines, which according to the Higher Education Academy help enormously (http://www.qaa.ac.uk/en/Publications/Documents/enterprise-entrepreneurship-guidance.pdf). Assessment is key I agree, and at OECD levels / in Europe we are hitting this head on with an 'EntreComp' competency framework that is very near completion. In the meantime this overview document might be of use to any interested parties. http://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/bitstream/JRC96531/jrc96531_final.pdf
