Abstract :
Entrepreneurship and its competencies are the essential antidotes to dealing with a weak economy and its unpleasant consequences. The main purpose of this research is to evaluate the influencing factors in the entrepreneurial qualifications of the Comprehensive University of Applied Sciences lecturers. The researcher chose an applied and cross-sectional research with a quantitative approach and a descriptive-survey strategy, and the literature and background of the research were collected through the library method and the primary data through a questionnaire. The researcher has collected it online. The statistical population included lecturers of the University of Applied Sciences, who estimated a sample size of 250 people using Gpower software and selected 221 samples using a simple random sampling method as the unit of analysis, and finally, after the screening, 221 samples were selected using variance-oriented structural equation modeling method and Smart PLS3 software. 3 has been analyzed. The findings of the research show that practical knowledge qualifications do not have a significant effect on professional skill qualifications, but attitudinal qualifications have a positive and significant effect on professional skill qualifications. Applied knowledge competencies have a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial competencies. Also, attitudinal qualifications have no significant effect on entrepreneurial qualifications, and professional skill qualifications have a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial qualifications. On the other hand, applied knowledge qualifications have no significant effect on entrepreneurial qualifications through professional skill qualifications and have no mediating effect, but attitudinal qualifications have a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial qualifications through professional skill qualifications and have a partial mediating effect
